The restaurant serves salads, shrimp and sliders.
Saudi Arabia is home to restaurants from around the world, from celebrity chefs to big brands. Now, Laysen Valley has welcomed Qatar’s popular restaurant Juno to Riyadh. Originating from Doha’s West Walk, Juno has built a loyal following thanks to its elevated approach to comfort food featuring Italian dishes with international flair.
At its Riyadh outpost, diners can expect more of what made the original such a hit with dishes such as creamy burrata, perfectly crisp truffle arancini, and signature plates of saffron risotto and wood-fired pizzas layered with finesse. Expect an Italian-inspired menu designed for long lunches, late dinners, and everything in between. The staff can be found wearing bright reds and soft whites, and the décor is cool and contemporary.
The appetisers include Garlic Bread, Mini Truffle Arancini and Stuffed Burrata. The salads include Goat Cheese Salad, Kale Salad and Roasted Corn Salad. The pizzas include a J Bufala, J Daytona Ring and J Truffle. The mains include the Lasagna, Saffron Shrimp Risotto and Truffle Madaldini. Plus, the dessert includes a classic Tiramisu.
Set against the architectural beauty of Laysen Valley, with its Salmani style and pedestrian-friendly layout, Juno in Riyadh fits seamlessly among a curated collection of premium dining destinations, including Bagatelle, Sumosan, and White Robata. The interiors at the hip new restaurant promise the same chic minimalism and inviting warmth as its Qatari counterpart.
Whether you’re a fan of the original location in Doha or a first-time visitor, Juno in Riyadh delivers familiar flavours with a polished new edge. And with Riyadh’s appetite for quality growing faster than ever, this is one opening that’s bound to make an impression.
