What to Expect at Riviera Brunch?
The menu changes with the season but always follows a similar arc through the meal:
Everything uses fresh, seasonal produce, so specific dishes may shift across the year.
- Starters: house bread; marinated olives; crudos and cured fish, including the scallop and rockfish ceviche and house-cured salmon
- Mains: selections from the grill (octopus, miso black salmon, dry-aged Wagyu ribeye) alongside house-made pasta such as tagliolini with crab bisque or lemon ricotta ravioli
- Desserts: Nonna’s tiramisu and the warm chocolate tart with toasted sourdough ice cream are the signatures

Why Do Guests Choose the Riviera Brunch?
Mika holds a Bib Gourmand and a Service Award from the MICHELIN Guide Abu Dhabi — two recognitions that reflect the quality of the kitchen and the standard of hospitality. At brunch, that translates to food that is genuinely well-made and service that is attentive without being formal. The sharing format and waterfront setting do the rest. For a Saturday lunch that feels considered rather than corporate, the Riviera Brunch is a consistent choice.
