L'Olivo

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Beachfront Table Worth Seeking Out

L'Olivo sits within Rixos The Palm Dubai on the East Crescent of Palm Jumeirah, one of the most recognisable addresses in the United Arab Emirates. The setting alone — beachfront, with the Arabian Gulf as a backdrop — sets a tone that few dining rooms in Dubai can match. Recognised by Gambero Rosso with 2 Forks in 2024, the restaurant has earned its place among the region's more serious fine dining destinations.

The Experience

The room is designed for occasions that call for something more considered: private dining, a chef's table, or simply a dinner where the surroundings do as much work as the food. Outdoor seating brings guests closer to the water, while the indoor space offers the quiet comfort of air conditioning and attentive table service. Live entertainment adds atmosphere without overwhelming conversation, and a dedicated bar rounds out the offering for those who want to linger.

For Groups and Special Events

L'Olivo accommodates private parties and events with dedicated private rooms, making it a practical choice for corporate gatherings or celebrations that require both discretion and a certain level of polish. Culinary classes and a chef's table option suggest a kitchen confident enough to open its doors — a mark of genuine hospitality rather than theatre.

Recognition That Means Something

A Gambero Rosso 2 Forks distinction is not awarded lightly — it signals consistent quality, a coherent kitchen identity, and a dining room that delivers on its promises. For visitors to Dubai or residents of Palm Jumeirah looking for fine dining that has been independently vetted, L'Olivo at Rixos The Palm carries that credibility.
