First look: Dubai Marina’s newest Italian papas

Say Ciao to Papas, Dubai Marina’s first Italian with a view. 

Overlooking the glittering Dubai Marina, Papas is your newest neighbourhood Italian. A celebration of the vibrant warmth of Italy’s social and culinary traditions, Papas feels like you’re sitting down for a meal in a cosy Italian home.

As soon as you step inside, you’ll be transported to the heart of Italy, with a blend of warmth and tradition, creating a homey and inviting atmosphere. Every detail has been carefully curated to make you feel like you’re sitting down for a meal in a cosy Italian home. 

Romantic, wholesome and generous.

 

 

 

 

 

Presenting a menu rich in history, with a twist on your Italian favourites, including homemade pasta and pizza that is (quite frankly) to die for, we’re tipping Papas to become one of the Marina’s most loved restaurants. 

With pasta starting from AED 65, and pizzas from AED 70, this Marina newbie could very easily turn into our new regular, without breaking the bank.
