Italian cuisine has developed over the centuries. Although the country known as Italy, the cuisine can claim traceable roots as far back as the 4th century BCE. Having visited IL Forno a fair-few times now over that past year or so, we’ve become accustomed to the excellent service and food available here always fresh and delicious. Recently we got a chance to visit again at their Al Ghurair Centre branch. It is a leading restaurant in UAE which serves some truly authentic Italian dishes. The location of this place is great, and there’s ample space for parking in the mall. The interiors are quirky, simple yet inviting with ample seating. The staff are helpful specially mentioned Outlet Manager Mr. Ahmed who ensured that all guests were comfortable. it was his recommendations that helped us to decide our food. He was around at all times personally. The service was quick and the quality of food was good. The tranquillising flavours of Italian food are seductively intense and yet beautifully balanced and boasts of all things yummy would definitely create ripples in the taste buds. The food has done wonders here. After a long time, we have had such satiating Italian delight♥️ Let’s talk about the food now We started off with drinks (Blue moon fresh juice & Classic Mojito) which was absolute refreshing. We followed it up with Arancini Ai Formaggi balls and Garlic Bread. This was a presentation delight. Arancini balls were finger licking tasty and the Garlic bread was so fresh and at the time it was crispy too. Then we had Traditional Calzone Pizza, Veg Pizza & Fettuccine Alfredo. The Calzone Pizza was amazing probably the best we have eaten. Veg Pizza was cooked perfectly, which has buffalo mozzarella and basil. The crust is not thin or super thick. It's fluffy and not made in the traditional brick oven. The technique of making this pizza is completely different all the way from the dough to baking. Fettuccine Alfredo- This was perfectly cooked; the white sauce was rich and creamy and the mushrooms were absolutely fresh. The Tasty journey came to an end with blue berry cheese cake it was incredibly good! Overall, it was a great experience once again. If you’re looking for eat Italian food than we would surely recommend this place. Had a great time cheer to the whole team.

I could say the best recommended place for Italian food in UAE is @ilfornouae. I have been to Italy few months ago and had their authentic Italian food and to my wonder ilforno serves the similar taste and I can never compromise the taste of their each and every dish. They have wide range of food menu and you have the option to custome the pizzas as per ur choice like how I did ordering half with mushrooms and half with chicken, this way we can enjoy different flavors. They also have all varieties of pasta which u can check in their menu. I recently visited their Al Ghurair Center branch, loved the place which had indoor and outdoor seating and their interiors were so good which gave the Christmas vibes for the season. Their staff were very friendly and with smiling face throughout our dinner. Their portions were huge and taste also equally good. Food I ordered Insalata Di Mango with Blue Cheese Dressing, any mango lover who likes salad, will definitely choose this healthy option which was excellent in taste. Enjoyed eating as it’s purely a guilt free option. Spaghetti Alla Bolognese - Spaghetti was served with minced beef which was so juicy, soft and fresh. Any beef lovers will love this for sure Penne Verdi which is basically good for any vegetarian lovers. I love red sauce and so I opted this which didn’t disappoint me as it tasted so awesome. Al Fungi Tartufo was totally amazing and yummy, loved having every bite. Definitely we need some beverages to go with all these palatable dishes and we opted for Mango and Pineapple fresh juice which was good to go with the food we ordered. My rating is ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ always for IL Forno.

I just had the most amazing time at IL FORNO, and I can't wait to share the love! The staff there are seriously the friendliest bunch, always serving up our orders with the biggest smiles—it made the whole experience feel like dining with friends. The place itself is so cozy and clean, creating this really nice vibe. It's the kind of spot where you instantly feel comfortable. Now, let's talk about the pizzas. We went for the Vegetariana and Oreganate pizzas, thanks to our waiter's recommendation, and they were a flavor explosion! Seriously, not a single mistake on those pies—they were pure perfection. We also tried the Chicken Caesar, potato widgets (which are basically little bites of heaven), and a Tiramisu for dessert. Everything was so fresh and ridiculously delicious. Our waitress, this awesome lady, kept checking in on us, making sure we were having a blast. And then, as if that wasn't sweet enough, they surprised us with complimentary ice cream at the end! Talk about a kind gesture. IL FORNO, you've won our hearts with your fantastic food and top-notch service. I'm already planning my next visit—I can't get enough of that place!

If you are craving authentic Italian food with the best service - do visit Il Forno opposite Al Ghurair centre! I was absolutely amazed by their hospitality, service, flavors, and beautiful view from their outdoor seating ! To start with they served crispy bread with marinara sauce - yum! We started with the Crispy Kale salad which was topped with oranges that added a zesty flavor… the salad was so fresh n crunchy that we couldn’t resist but finish the whole bowl! We then ordered the Primavera Pizza and Penne Verdi for mains. Primavera pizza was so flavorful and soft, the cheese was practically melting in our mouths! Topped with broccoli, artichoke, bell peppers among others was absolutely delicious. Penne Verdi had appropriate amount of red sauce; it was an absolute delight to our taste buds! Their portions are so generous that we easily had some left over to take home. In the end we tried their innovative Mango tiramisu - their take on tiramisu with the fruity flavor of mango. Just when we thought their food couldn’t get better, the mango tiramisu surprised us yet again …. So soft, aptly sweet, with the perfect amount of mango-ness! Trips to Al ghurair have become even more exciting now that I’ve discovered Il Forno!

Transport yourself to and enjoy the fine taste of Italian cuisine at @ilfornouae They have an ample selection of pastas, pizzas, paninis, salads and more with generous portion sizes easily enough for two I tried their new menu additions, the Pepper Steak which is served medium rare smothered in a signature pepper sauce It's accompanied with a potato side of your choice (mashed/baked/wedges) and grilled or sautéed vegetables. The steak was served sizzling hot and you could taste the grilled beef fat in every bite The second dish I tried was their Pollo Parmigiana. Breaded & fried chicken breast served on a bed of Napolitano pasta layered with parmesan cheese . The chicken breasts were tender with good crispy skin and this too was served with potatoes of your choice, sautéed vegetables and a drink The service was quite fast and the generous servings actually left us with no room for dessert . Would recommend this place for true Italian flavours

At @ilfornouae You will experience an impeccable and authentic Italian cuisine ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars for food, service, value and ambiance . The staff there, is very nice and the service is quick - that really impressed me (other than food) For starters we had finger licking filletini di pollo, one of the best appetizers I have had, so perfect and delicious. The portions were surprisingly huge. The highlight of the evening was Fettuccine Alfredo, I cant emphasize enough how scrumptious it was! Rich with cheese and full of taste, this pasta is surely a must have when you visit @ilfornouae . It was made with perfection. Pepper Steak - mouth-watering, fulfilling. Cooked to perfection. The most addictive food i have tasted in a long time. I can go on and on but If i have to sum up my review i can say, order anything from the menu and you will not be disappointed. Honestly i couldn't decide which thing i liked the least! They have the exquisite food! Definitely coming back!

The best place for authentic Italian food and it never fails you. Lovely ambience and big seating area. Friendly staff and very helpful. We headed there for dinner at their Al Ghurair Centre branch to enjoy their food. We were first served with breadsticks and condiments Ordered their C Power Fresh Juice - very refreshing Zuppa Di Pollo E Verdure - Creamy thick soup with chicken and vegetables and absolutely yumm Filettini Di Pollo - Delicious Crispy chicken strips, kids will love this Fettuccine Cajun Alfredo- Creamy Pasta with chicken, a must try Spicy Chicken Ranch Pizza - flavorsome pizza with chicken and smoked bacon And don’t forget to try their Tiramisu , absolutely divine. Overall enjoyed their food and definitely going back soon

It was our wedding anniversary, so we planned to goto Il Forno yesterday and we are glad we went there. The food was great and the service was easily 5 stars. The waiters and manager was really friendly. Oh, and the prices very reasonable comparing to any other Italian restaurants in Dubai..

You can park at Al Guraira Mall parking and two minutes walk.

One of many places that serves reasonably good Italian food in Dubai. Both outdoor and indoor seating available. Free parking in al Ghurair mall. The portion size of each item was great that we rarely get to see in many places. The staff was very friendly and super nice. Of many dishes what I ordered I honestly just liked the Alfredo Cajun pasta the most which was more like just normal Alfredo pasta with penne and is highly recommended. They also have kids friendly meals so an amazing place to go with family as well. The tiramisu cake slice was the best I have ever had. Fresh juices and ice tea were amazing too. Gonna definitely go again.

Had the most amazing experience in one of the best Italian restaurant in UAE. I had the opportunity to visit with my friends and I didn't regret it, from the exquisite food to the top-notch service and I can't forget the best service and mind-blowing ambience. We ordered Chicken Wings (Starter) Spicy chicken Ranch Pizza Pasta & Baked Pasta Piramisu (Dessert) Strawberry Cheese Cake (Dessert) High Recommended! If you’re looking for pure Italian food. The food is freshly made with authentic Italian sauces, lips smacking and finger licking!!! Would love to visit them again very soon

The service and ambiance was great. Staff were attentive, polite, and available. No complaints here. The food and drinks were a let down unfortunately. The ingredients didn’t taste fresh, salt was too much and overall taste was average. The drinks tasted artificial. I feel the cost of the food was too high for what we received. Despite the good reviews please be aware that it’s not an authentic Italian restaurant, but rather a fusion of Indian and Italian.

We had came for dinner and had an amazing experience!! The customer service was perfect and we had an awesome server named Hesham who welcomed us and made sure we had a great time. The food here is delicious, but will say that the pasta serving sizes are pretty big and one plate can be used for 2 people. The food came very fast despise us ordering a lot and tasted delicious. We ended our dinner with Strawberry Ice cream on the house for everyone! Had a great experience overall.

This is the place that you can happily call yummiest Italian food place in Dubai! The portion size of each item was great that we rarely get to see in many places. The staff was very friendly and super nice! Loved the pizza bites and pasta the most. Fettuccini is highly recommended. They also have kids friendly meals so an amazing place to go with family as well. The starter soup was so filling though. Gonna definitely go again!

Spicy Chicken Ranch Pizza

They are known for the best pasta makers in UAE and trust me they did justify them. I had the classic Alfredo penne and Ravioli Ala Bolognese , but started the meal with their spicy tangy wings . Spicy chicken ranch was fine but the pizza dough was perfect. This is a pasta winner indeed

Excellent quick lunch in an outdoor setting taking in Dubai at Al Ghurair centre. Ms. Liscelle does a great job of upselling as well.
