A meal for a colleague who's permanently leaving the Kingdom, and research said this was a good restaurant. We were both disappointed, he more than me even though I have more expectations....My meal I'll describe. Starter, mussels with rice and pine nuts. In itself nice, but actually a bit bland and covered in an oil that gave an unpleasant (oily) texture without adding flavour. No sign of the pine nuts. The main was the sea bass. This had more flavour but nothing special. It tasted like a fish in tomato sauce. The cherry element was completely lacking in the dish, and seems to have only been the element of decoration on the side of the bowl! Nothing bad, but nothing special or different. Dessert - nothing was appetising so we didn't have any. Drinks disappointingly limited to a single mixed fruit juice, canned drinks, water or non alcoholic wine. In a 5* hotel.... Getting there. Finding the car park was ok, but there were no signs for the entrance. Once on the correct floor there were no directions. Unacceptable. Service - professional. Expensive.

I recently visited Eataly in Riyadh and I had a great experience there, and will definitely return. The restaurant is located in one of the busiest streets in Riyadh, therefore it is hard to find a parking spot. However, once you do manage to get inside you are welcomed by a large grocery. Yes, grocery! This is one of the major factors of what differentiates Eataly from other restaurants like Piatto. Just past the grocery is the dining space. It is beautifully lit up, and the tables and chairs add to its very authentic atmosphere.The Price:A major downside for Eataly is the price. Due to it being a fine-dining restaurant the prices are very high. Some believe that it is just too high a price to pay for the quality of the food, but that's just their opinion.The location: It is located in one of the liveliest streets in Eastern Riyadh. It neighbors many famous restaurants like 5 Guys, Zaatar w Zeit, and Dip n dip. It also hosts its own plaza, Almas Plaza.The Facilities:Like I previously mentioned, Eataly isn't just a restaurant. It possesses its own grocery and hosts its own cooking lessons for the youth. Inside the grocery, you can find all types of ingredients ranging from all kinds of pasta to sauces to chocolates and it even has its own Nutella stand that is quite popular with the kids.In conclusion, Eataly is an all-rounder. Apart from its facilities the restaurant itself is charming and entertains customers with its own authentic atmosphere. It is a great location to go eat with friends and families but really hits the spot with kids. If you can avoid the thought of the price then going to Eataly is a must.

Restaurant with good food. The room is also nice. Only problem is that the service is slow. We've waited too much for the main order and desert.

No surprise with the excellent food and service again at this beautiful restaurant. The must try is the whole boneless barbecued/ grilled chicken , and the lamb kebabs. Never have been disappointed taking friends and family here. The staff is so professional and so is the service. Must try!
