SLS Dubai’s Carna by Dario Cecchini is taking Italian cuisine to new heights with an enhanced new à la carte menu sure to impress even the most discerning palates. Steeped in tradition and innovation, the new menu elevates each cut of meat with bold, modern techniques, introducing inventive flavour pairings and presentations that push the boundaries of traditional steakhouse fare.

Weaving a rich tapestry of flavours, the new menu draws inspiration from Executive Sous Chef, Francisco Morales’recent journey to the rolling hills of Panzano in Chianti, the birthplace of legendary butcher Dario Cecchini.From the highest quality cuts to fresh produce, the focus is firmly on traditional, seasonal and ethically sourced fare, and authentic recipes perfected through time. The talented culinary team has now introduced a spread that perfectly balances the rustic Italian charm with the vibrant and modern energy of Dubai’s pulsating cosmopolitan appeal.

Diners will begin with meat and seafood starters such as the Wagyu Beef Tartare, served with a kick of cayenne pepper and grilled sourdough, or dive into a Prawn on the Bone, a Sicilian prawn tartar enhanced with confit garlic aioli, thyme, and roasted bone marrow. Vegetarians can opt for the Candy Tomato Salad with refreshing watermelon radish and bergamot vinaigrette—light yet packed with flavour, or the delicious Grilled Lettuce Salad, sweetened with truffle honey dressing and crispy shallot for an added crunch. For a unique, plant-forward alternative, the Tomato Tartar brings together mustard, capers, and basil, served alongside crispy schiacciata bread. This vibrant dish aligns with the restaurant’s root-to-leaf philosophy, offering a sustainable and flavourful vegetarian option.

For the main affair, meat enthusiasts can revel in indulgent cuts of the Australian Wagyu Ribeye and Japanese Wagyu from Saroma, each cooked to perfection, or a slowly grilled Corn Fed Organic Baby Chicken served with mushroom & pepper sauce. For those looking to explore something a little more daring, the Nose to Tail section offers exceptional dishes designed to showcase every delicious cut. Guests can share the oven-roasted Veal Shank between two to four people, paired with smoked mash potato and veal jus, or delve into the Short Ribs, served with crispy shallots, chives, smoked mash potato, and barbecue jus, for a rich, flavourful experience that celebrates the art of slow cooking.

While Carna has established its reputation as the must-visit culinary destination to enjoy the finest cuts of meat, the new menu boasts a standout array of vegetarian and plant-based dishes that are designed to wow even the most dedicated meat eaters. For mushroom lovers, the hearty Portobello Mushroom Steak are sure to impress with a side of butter beans and tomato soffritto, while the Seasonal Wild Mushrooms & Truffle dish offers a luxurious take on earthy flavours such as cashew nut, artichoke with parmesan, and slow-cooked egg.

For a richer experience, diners can pair any main with indulgent sides like the Truffle & Parmesan Chips or creamy truffle Mac &Cheese and top it all off with one of Carna’s signature sauces.

Whether guests are craving premium cuts of meat or a thoughtfully crafted vegetarian dish that warms the heart, Carna promises an unforgettable dining experience. By pushing the boundaries of contemporary cuisine, Carna proves that quality, service, and inclusivity can go hand in hand.
