Our Story
Born in the heart of the Eastern Province, Lievito blends authentic Italian flavors with a refined Saudi touch. Founded by Chef Hakim Al-Shoaibi, whose culinary journey began at home and led him to Florence to master the art of fresh pasta and traditional sauces, Lievito reflects his vision of reimagining Italian classics through local inspiration.
CULINARY EXCELLENCE
Meaning “yeast” in Italian, Lievito symbolizes the small element that transforms everything. Just as yeast brings dough to life, we bring passion, quality, and simplicity to every dish. Prepared fresh daily with seasonal ingredients, our food carries both the soul of Italy and the warmth of Saudi hospitality.
