What makes Riviera Beach Grill special in comparison to its competitors in the market?
Richard John Barrett: We source only the highest quality, and freshest produce and serve it in a simple and uncomplicated way, from our wood fire open chargrill, josper oven and rotisserie spit-roast, offering a typically Mediterranean seafront vibe which perfectly complements our beautiful beachside setting here in JBR Dubai.
Vladimir Bogosavac: Definitely the character of the place and the way our staff help our guests to enjoy not only a unique experience but also the highest quality dishes from our specially curated menu. The venue has a stunning view giving guests the feeling of being sat on a typical Mediterranean seafront; this, combined with the breeze truly opens all of your senses.
How do the front-of-house and back-of-house teams support each other?
Richard John Barrett: Knowledge and understanding of our product and vision are key factors in guest satisfaction and we strive to internally communicate and adapt to our clients’ needs to ensure a memorable experience at Riviera Beach Grill.
Vladimir Bogosavac: Secret ingredients are always kept inside the kitchen doors, but a mutual understanding and consistent support has created a special bond in the entire team, allowing them to deliver the ultimate memorable experience to our guests by anticipating their needs.
