Foodies will surely come back for seconds as Buono Buono, which means good good, brings the traditional Italian dining experience to the city’s hotspots. If you’re craving the familiar comfort of classic Italian dishes while also seeking that next unforgettable, Instagrammable food moment, look no further as Buono Buono has arrived! A fresh Italian dining concept that takes genuine Italian dishes and reimagines them with a contemporary flair for modern-day foodies, Buono Buono serves up flavorful and exciting Italian cuisine at the heart of Dubai’s liveliest dining hotspots – Sheikh Zayed Road and The Walk in Jumeirah Beach Residences.
Authentic Italian dining is all about fresh, seasonal ingredients, hearty fare and a cozy vibe that reflects the Italian zing for life that they call la dolce vita. Buono Buono perfectly captures that passion for food and exudes fun energy through their constantly evolving menu, their vibrant space and their friendly team.
From salads and antipasti, zesty soups, to main courses and secondi, Buono Buono offers a variety of Italian classics, including a breakfast menu with pesto and delicious rustic bread all baked in-house. And while pizza and pasta are universal favorites, Buono Buono kicks it up a notch with unique twists to the dishes you love.
Crafted in the traditional woodfired oven, their pizzas range from the classic Margherita and Quattro Formaggi (Four Cheese) to more contemporary takes to fire up your palate. For an indulgent treat, try the Pizza Al Tartufo, which oozes buffalo mozzarella and is topped with mushrooms and delectable black truffle. The Pizza Al Fiocco or Potato Pizza is another highlight of the menu, with its combination of Turkey ham, mozzarella, potatoes and parmesan.
You can also take a bite of the good good life with Buono Buono’s mouthwatering portfolio of pasta. All handmade from the restaurant’s kitchen and cooked perfectly al dente, savor the meaty goodness of the slow-cooked ragu or beef sauce of the Pappardelle alla Genovese. Fans of stuffed pasta should definitely try the Tortelli di Burrata, ravioli stuffed with burrata cheese and swimming in heirloom tomato sauce. And if you believe frying makes food even tastier, don’t miss the Frittatina di Pasta, a cheesy deep fried pasta that will have you going back for seconds!
And don’t worry, generous portions mean there’s plenty of good good food to go around – but make sure to leave room for dessert! Buono Buono’s fantastic dessert offerings is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth – try the signature Pistachio Cheesecake, a combination of rich and luscious mascarpone cheese with the creamy nuttiness of pistachios or the Tiramisu, with its dusting of coffee, mascarpone cream and salvadori biscuits.
Finish things off with some smooth Italian coffee or a cup of hot chocolate or linger to soak in the atmosphere. The vibe of Buono Buono is Italian retro with a dash of Dubai fuss-free fun. It’s the Italian Riviera with its genuine hospitality and the vivid colors of the coast and carnation fields, with flourishes of contemporary Dubai – colorful, energetic and eclectic.

We wanted to take this concept of cozy dining and do a contemporary riff with twice the passion, energy and fun. It’s an abundance of good food to spark good times and conversations that is at the heart of the Italian dining experience that we will bring you at Buono Buono,” said Trabucco, from the lovely countryside of North of Italy who has been an integral part of the concept-building as he introduced his vision for the restaurant and how he and the team could bring the genuine Italian flair to their guests.
