Fi'Lia

Located on the 70th floor of SLS Dubai Hotel & Residences in Business Bay, Fi’lia Dubai shines as a female-led celebration of generational Italian cuisine, where Chef Célia Stoecklin and her all-women team craft authentic dishes inspired by family recipes passed from nonna to mamma to figlia. This Michelin Bib Gourmand recipient (2022-2025) blends traditional flavors with modern Mediterranean touches, offering a relaxed yet elevated experience from lunch to late-night aperitifs, ideal for skyline diners and social butterflies in Dubai’s downtown pulse.

Step into Fi’lia, and the interiors embrace you with serene sophistication—soft white and green tones, potted olive trees, and plush banquettes create a zen-like calm for around 150 guests, evoking a sunlit Italian courtyard high above the city. The space flows from intimate indoor tables to a stunning outdoor terrace with unobstructed views of the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Canal, where linen-draped seating invites sunset toasts amid gentle breezes. As evening arrives, the vibe warms with subtle live music during Saturday brunch or a gentle DJ hum on weekends, fostering easy conversations among a stylish crowd. The atmosphere feels cozy and uplifting, great for a casual lunch, birthday gathering, or after-work unwind overlooking the glittering horizon.

The menu unfolds as a story in three acts—nonna’s classics, mamma’s twists, and figlia’s innovations—using fresh, seasonal ingredients from a firewood oven and handmade pasta, paired with Italian wines and handcrafted cocktails. Start with the Nonna Burrata at AED 85, creamy Puglian cheese with heirloom tomatoes, basil, and olive oil—a simple, juicy tribute to tradition. The Mamma Tuna Crudo for AED 95 layers sea bass fillets with citrus dressing, chili, and herbs, bright and zingy for sharing.

Pasta stands out with the classic Spaghetti Carbonara at AED 110, al dente ribbons in guanciale-pecorino sauce with cracked black pepper, rich and comforting. Pizza enthusiasts love the Figlia Bresaola e Burrata at AED 120, a wood-fired base topped with cured beef, burrata, rocket, and balsamic—a crisp, savory balance of old and new. Mains include the Grilled Whole Sea Bass at AED 150, herb-crusted and served with lemon and samphire, flaky with subtle char. Meat options feature the Tagliata di Manzo for AED 140, sliced ribeye with rocket, parmesan, and balsamic glaze, tender and bold. Vegetarians savor the Eggplant Parmigiana at AED 95, layered with mozzarella, San Marzano tomatoes, and basil, baked until bubbly and hearty.

Desserts nod to heritage with the signature Fi’liamisu at AED 55, tiramisu cream with ladyfinger biscuits, espresso syrup, and milk foam—a frothy, coffee-kissed delight—or the Panna Cotta at AED 50, silky vanilla custard with seasonal berries for a light, refreshing close.
