The New York-style Italian is located in Jareed Hotel.
A slice of Italy via New York has landed in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Morini Riyadh has opened in the five-star boutique hotel, Jareed Hotel, on The Boulevard Riyadh. So, if you’re craving pasta in a plush setting, make a beeline for this New York-style Italian restaurant.
Morini already has a popular following with locals and celebrities in New York as well as Istanbul, but this is the first time that the restaurant is coming to the Middle East. Each Morini restaurant combines the buzz of New York with Italian dishes, and creates an elegant dining experience.
At Morini Riyadh, you can try Italy’s exquisite cross-regional flavours. The menu includes lobster ravioli in a tomato and chilli basil sauce, golden seared salmon with asparagus, gnocchi in Pomodoro sauce and, of course, tiramisu.
Morini Riyadh is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and also includes a cocktail bar serving beautifully presented mocktails. And, if you’re celebrating a special occasion, book The Balcone private dining room.
The effortlessly chic restaurant boasts Art Deco vibes, from curved mirrors to gold rims. The slick décor combines clean white walls and table clothes with bold navy tiles and plates. The full-length windows light up the venue during the day, while the candles help set the mood in the evening.
Some of the walls leading up to high ceilings are lined with classic black and white photographs, while others are decorated with foliage and lemons. There’s even a nice nod to the Amalfi Coast via an indoor lemon tree. Bellissimo.
