Designed to capture the lightness, freshness, and colour of the Mediterranean in summer, the Menu di Stagione is a thoughtfully curated celebration of seasonal ingredients and Italian culinary artistry
Available daily for both lunch and dinner, the new menu is a tribute to regional flavours and timeless traditions, reimagined with a contemporary touch.
The journey begins with elegant antipasti like Fiori di zucca, zucchini flowers delicately filled with creamy ricotta and taggiasca olives; a classic summer indulgence that’s both light and satisfying
The Asparagi bianchi gratinati, featuring tender white asparagus topped with parmesan and crushed pistachios, offers a beautifully textured contrast of nuttiness and umami
For seafood lovers, the Insalata di granchio, a fresh and refined crab salad paired with chilled gazpacho and a hint of chilli, delivers a crisp, refreshing start to the meal.
Pasta takes centre stage with sun-ripened vegetables and premium seafood.
Highlights include Linguine alla Nerano, a Southern Italian favourite made with thinly sliced zucchini and cheese; Tagliatelle with langoustine and yellow datterino tomatoes, balancing richness with brightness; and Pappa al pomodoro, a rustic Tuscan bread-and-tomato dish reinterpreted with tender baby squid for added depth.
To complete the dining experience, the Catch of the Day brings diners the freshest fish prepared with minimalist Mediterranean flair; grilled, baked, or steamed to let the ingredients speak for themselves.
Whether you’re indulging in a leisurely lunch or a refined evening meal, the Menu di Stagione offers a journey through Italy’s coastal regions, inspired by the rhythm of the seasons and the simplicity of sun-drenched ingredients.

An elevated business lunch
For those seeking a midweek escape or a refined midday meal, Pranzo a L’Amo: Summer Edition offers the perfect balance of indulgence and practicality.
Available Monday to Friday from midday to 3pm, this elegant two-course business lunch is priced at AED 135 per person, with the option to add dessert and coffee for just AED 20.
Designed to reflect the spontaneity and freshness of summer, the menu rotates regularly, staying true to L’Amo’s farm-and-sea-to-table philosophy.
Starters may include Melanzane with datterino tomatoes and salted ricotta, a dish that’s as comforting as it is vibrant; a light and flavourful octopus salad tossed with crisp seasonal vegetables; or golden crispy calamari served with a touch of citrus.
Main courses offer something for every palate; from Milanese chicken served with a bright summer salad to Gnocchetti Sardi al ragù, a hearty yet refined Sardinian pasta dish that balances richness with rustic charm.
The Catch of the Day, prepared Ligurian style with herbs, olive oil, and lemon, ensures each lunch feels fresh and luxurious without being heavy.
Guests are encouraged to enhance their meal with selections from the restaurant’s summer wine list.
Carefully curated by L’Amo’s sommelier team, the offering includes crisp, seafood-friendly whites like Kaltern Pinot Grigio and Rocca Di Montemassi Calasole Vermentino, as well as vibrant reds such as Pietra Pura Nterra Negroamaro and the sparkling elegance of Ferrari Perlé 2018; each chosen to complement the seasonal dishes perfectly.
Located within the luxurious surrounds of Dubai Harbour, L’Amo Bistro del Mare offers more than just exquisite food.
The atmosphere is a celebration of Italian coastal living; breezy, sophisticated, and effortlessly chic.
Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the dining room with natural light and provide panoramic views of the water, while the refined interiors echo the tones and textures of the Mediterranean shoreline.
Whether you’re dining with colleagues, entertaining guests, or simply treating yourself to a moment of la dolce vita, L’Amo’s new seasonal experiences promise to transport you; one bite at a time; to the heart of an Italian summer.
