With stunning skyline views, Il Gattopardo is now open on the 51st floor of ICD Brookfield Place, bringing timeless Italian dining from Mayfair, London, to DIFC, Dubai. Open from 12pm daily, Il Gattopardo offers an impressive A la carte menu, tailored business lunch, signature early evening Aperitivo and sophisticated late night dinners.
Il Gattopardo offers timeless, traditional Italian hospitality with its extensive food menu inspired by the Italian Riviera. Executive Chef Massimo Pasquarelli takes guests on a culinary journey through Italy, with modern interpretations of classic Italian dishes. Begin with signature Antipasti, including Arancini and creamy Bufala, or opt for crisp Pizzette, such as the truffle-infused Tartufo and fresh pastas such as Ricotta & spinach ravioli. At the Crudo Bar, indulge in the flavours of ‘La Dolce Vita’ with special delicacies, from the Gamberi (Sicilian prawns) to Spigola (sea bass carpaccio). The experience continues with generous sharing of dishes for large groups, such as the Milanese and Pollo Cacciatora, as they say in Italian ‘più siamo, meglio è’ (more the merrier). To conclude, Head Pastry Chef Galileo Reposo delights with Il Gattopardo’s viral Tiramisu, Maritozzo brioche buns, and Coppa Gelato with espresso ganache and hazelnut ice cream.
Designed by Lázaro Rosa-Violán, its interiors feature Milanese elegance, Venetian charm, and leopard motifs, creating a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere to take you from lunch to late night aperitives. Boasting uninterrupted views of the iconic Burj Khalifa and Dubai’s glittering skyline, Il Gattopardo also offers private dining options and nightly, a resident DJ spinning retro Italian hits until 1:30am, making it the perfect venue for intimate gatherings and lively celebrations alike.
