Cipriani Dolci Riyadh is now open in the Diplomatic Quarter
The Venetian pasticceria concept has arrived in the capital
You’ve heard of quiet luxury; now get ready to meet a concept that embodies just that, in every sense of the word. Hotly anticipated venue Cipriani Dolci Riyadh has officially opened its doors in the Diplomatic Quarter.
Coming to the capital with love from the Cipriani family, Cipriani Dolci Riyadh is the second Cipriani concept in the city, the first being Cipriani Riyadh, which serves signature Italian cuisine in one of Riyadh’s busiest districts, Hittin.

The chic new cafe promises a more laid-back all-day dining affair. It’s a luxurious take on the Italian Pasticceria. So, expect all the indulgent pastries your heart desires, baked to true perfection. Think decadent favourites from torta di cioccolato and ice cream freshly whipped to order to lemon tart, tiramisu and more. And of course, a must-try at all Cipriani locations is the vanilla meringue cake, which tastes exactly like a warm hug from Nonna.
Renowned for its tramezzini, pastries, desserts, great mocktails, and a selection of Cipriani classics, the new spot is also home to a classic vitrine that demands your undivided attention, displaying artisanal pastry and savoury delicacies.
But the concept isn’t all about satisfying sweet tooths (though that is a big part, much to our delight); the café focuses on all-day casual dining. If the UAE’s Cipriani Dolci menus are anything to go by, we can expect the Riyadh iteration to feature an array of savoury dishes for a heartier meal, including homemade ricotta gnocchi, veal Milanese, tasty sandwiches, and a three-tier truffle pizza tower.
The chain currently has three outlets in Dubai and one in Abu Dhabi, and now one in our neck of the woods too. The space is perfect for calm business lunches, chic coffee dates, and so much more. We’ll see you there.
