Bella Nights – Thursday Ladies Night at Isabella Lounge
Every Thursday night, Isabella Lounge transforms into a celebration of her, the dreamers, the romantics, the leaders, the sisters, the style-setters.
Located in the upscale heart of Emirates Hills, the downstairs restaurant contains a cocktail bar that blends refined design with Italian flair. It might be after-work drinks, date night, or simply a casual catch-up; whatever the case, Isabella’s bottom floor contains perhaps the most stylish Cocktail Bar Dubai has to offer, delivering a welcome atmosphere to enjoy premium drinks in luxurious surroundings. Visit for our traditional table seated Italian meals – stay for our cocktails.
At Isabella Cucina Italiana, enjoying a drink is part of the full Italian dining experience. Our cocktail bar sits comfortably within the restaurant, offering a relaxed spot to start or end your evening. The space combines polished wood, soft ambient lighting and plush seating to create a warm yet elevated feel—perfect for a relaxed italian inspired evening.
The full Italian cocktail menu is centre stage, served from a well‑appointed central bar with both high stools and table seating nearby. The bar services the restaurant, supplementing our delicious Italian food with authentic cocktails. The bar stocks a wide spectrum of spirits, from accessible standards to rare, top‑shelf bottlings: think classic vodka, gin and rum alongside high‑end scotch and rare whiskies.

The Cocktail Bar also showcases an impressive Negroni collection upstairs (more below), but even downstairs, you’ll enjoy beautifully balanced mixes, infused with fresh citrus, garden herbs, spices, premium liqueurs and fine syrups. The wine list features a curated range of Italian reds, whites, rosés and sparklers—perfectly paired with their wood‑fired pizzas, fresh pasta and signature dishes like truffle tagliata.
Beer fans will find Italian craft and international labels, while the non‑alcoholic selection covers sparkling and still water, artisan coffees, teas, and a lively mocktail menu. These alcohol‑free cocktails deliver the same layered complexity; think zesty citrus spritzers, botanical blends, and delightful fruity mixtures. With such diversity, the Lounge Bar Dubai experience caters to every preference: classic cocktail lovers, wine connoisseurs, whisky enthusiasts, and non‑alcoholic guests—all are accommodated with elegance. Every drink is carefully crafted by expert mixologists using premium spirits, fresh ingredients and artistic techniques.
