I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again—Roberto’s at The St. Regis Marsa Arabia Island, The Pearl Qatar hosts one of the most vibrant Friday brunches in Qatar. The energy is amazing, the atmosphere buzzing, and the food? Fantastic. If you’re looking for a great way to kick off your weekend, add this to your list.
We made our way back to Roberto’s last week for the much-anticipated launch of their Signature Brunch, and it was just as amazing as we’d hoped.
The concept is straightforward. You begin with the Crudo Bar, a buffet featuring the Chef’s weekly specials like tartare, fresh oysters, and ceviche—everything fresh and bursting with flavour.
Next, the antipasti are served family-style at the table. We were treated to Vitello Tonnato (slow-cooked veal tenderloin), creamy Burrata, Agave e Semi (baby spinach), and Pinza Bianca (pinza dough with fior di latte).
For the mains, you get to choose one dish from the menu. Options include Tortelli al Tartufo (homemade tortello filled with ricotta and spinach in a light truffle cream sauce), Orata alla Mediterranea (seared seabream fillet with potatoes, olives, cherry tomatoes, capers, and caciucco sauce), Costina (slow-cooked black Angus short ribs with mashed potatoes), Cavolfiore (cauliflower steak with mustard, truffle, and vegetable jus), and Polletto (roasted Limchi-marinated chicken with potato mille feuille, cacio e pepe sauce, and chicken jus). We went for the seabream and short ribs—both were flavourful and expertly cooked.
For dessert, an assortment of sweets is brought to the table to share.
But it’s not just about the food. The live entertainment keeps the energy high, with performers moving through the space and guests eventually becoming part of the show. The line between staff and guests blurs as everyone joins in the fun, creating an atmosphere where no one feels like a stranger.
Roberto’s Signature Friday Brunch offers three packages:
