    Amazing. Our first meal in Cartagena. It was so delicious that we came back a few days later to also have our last meal before returning home for this trip. Their seafood pastas are perfect. Mushroom appetizer was delicious and great with bread. Highly recommended to everyone.

    Delicious food. Ordered a pasta and ceviche. Both very tasty. They provided complementary bread that was super. Cocktails and tiramisu were also good. A good bit of vegetarian options. Not badly priced. Would return/recommend.

    Incredibly delicious food. Someone mentioned the best Italian food they had in Cartagena and we second that. We had the mussels, a salmon pasta, and cacio e pepe.

    We were a group of 6 and stumbled upon this restaurant in search of Italian food and we were so happy we did. Based on the name of the restaurant we didn’t know what to expect but we were pleasantly surprised. Wippy is the nickname of the owner who was having dinner with her family at the next table over. It is a family owned restaurant with great service, ambiance, and food quality. They make all of their pastas in house and they offer a gluten free option which can be hard to find in Cartagena. Our waitress made great suggestions and was able to modify any dish that we ordered to accommodate allergies or just personal preference. They also had a very nice wine list and suggested a wine that wasn’t on the menu that we thoroughly enjoyed. This was one of our favorite meals in Cartagena and we will definitely recommend this restaurant to friends planning to visit this city!

    I love this restaurant. Service is good, a/c, large menu, housemade pasta, bread, nice wines, and the flavors are great. Pasta was cooked perfectly every single time and the prices are reasonable. I literally ate here like 3 or 4 times during my visit because the other restaurants just weren't that great. This was my favorite restaurant in Cartagena.

    (Translated by Google) You can eat authentic pasta. The clerk is also very friendly and warm. Some people come to Cartagena to eat the food at this restaurant. (Original) 本格パスタを食べられます。 店員さん達もとてもフレンドリーで温かい接客をしてくれます。 このお店の料理を食べるために、カルタヘナへ旅行に来る人もいるそうです。

    Juan Carlos was the most amazing host / owner. He brought us beers on the street while we waited for a table for 7 and made sure everything was perfect for us. He even introduced to his mother "Wippy" who started the restaurant. I'm not lying when I say it was the best customer service experience I've ever had.

    I walked it there on a Monday with several empty tables and a quiet city. One of the server ladies seemed to show major attitude about seating me because I was traveling solo. I didn’t even bother waiting for their snarky deliberation. In a city with a 1000 undifferentiated restaurants, this one deserves a 1*.

    This place deserves way more 5 star reviews. Amazing Italian, all fresh and home made from scratch. All three of the dishes we ordered we’re wonderful, and Juan, the owner, constantly ensures everyone is taken care of.

  • 5/5 Nikolay S. 2 years ago on Google
    Wow, just wow. An absolute hidden gem. All of the pasta is made in house and cooked to perfection. The sauces are delicious and the salads and ceviches are super fresh! The service is outstanding and the ambiance relaxed and very pleasant! Thank you so much guys, I will be back for more!

  • 4/5 Radhakrishna B. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is so delicious. I ate here twice on two separate days. Pasta and Caprese salad is a must-try. Five stars for the Cook who cooks in the kitchen and the polite, kind waitress on my first day. However, on the second day the 2nd waitress was kind of rude. I don’t know why. Minus one star.

  • 4/5 Bruno G. 4 years ago on Google
    Good service, great food (tried the pasta, was amazing). Price is a little overpriced.

  • 4/5 Toby M. 4 years ago on Google
    Specialized in pasta and ceviche and they are able to bring some Italien flavors to the Caribbean. The staff seemed kinda uptight and insisted on a tip, without giving the chance to actually tip by choice which seemed kinda rude to me.

  • 5/5 Andy S. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent, authentic Italian food in the middle of the old city. Great prices and great options. They're very flexible about offering different types of pasta with each selection on their menu. Good vegetarian options for most dishes as well.

    Great small intimate restaurant. The staff was very kind The food was AMAZING!!! Generous dishes with lots of sea food Very much alike truly Italian food Highly recommend!!

  • 1/5 Adrian S. 1 year ago on Google
    4 out of the 5 dishes we wanted to order were not available. These were some basic pasta dishes as well. We left without eating after yet another dish we wanted to order was not available after the waitress had previously told us it was. Waitress was also sullen and made it seem like an inconvenience we wanted to order food. Edit: One was a tomato pasta dish that had eggplant in it, one was a Bosciola, one was a Carbonara, can't remember the 4th.

    delicious home made pasta at this little Italian restaurant. We had the beef bolognese. They also have chocolate cacao pasta that we wanted to go back to try bc we were too full but didn’t end up making it back

  • 5/5 Nolan 1 year ago on Google
    Very casual vibe yet upscale dining experience. Food is fantastic, the white cream sauce is so rich and filling can't say enough about it. Sadly didn't try more than shrimp pasta but it really was delicious and authentic pasta!

  • 5/5 Frank Pulecio A. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was surprisingly good, they know how to make real Italian food.

  • 5/5 Sophie L. 8 months ago on Google
    Went here for dinner and it was super tasty. My sister is gluten free and she was able to have a gluten free pasta dish, which she said was very tasty, they used a quinoa pasta. The service was great and the atmosphere was great. It’s a small restaurant so was a nice cosy atmosphere. Wouldn’t hesitate to eat here again!

    We got there by mistake and we enjoyed every moment there. The service was excellent 👌 The Salmon fillet was unique and I could have one more. I guess that I will visit there again, soon.

  • 5/5 Bianca Iulianella P. 3 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Do not hesitate to visit this Italian restaurant with a very local vibe — we went twice for dinner on our 5-night trip to Cartagena, and the food and service was excellent each time. The sign makes it sound like it primarily serves ceviche, but they have top-notch authentic pastas as well as very good seafood. The service was very friendly and quick — something we did not experience anywhere else in Cartagena or in Colombia, generally. Old town is a bit of a rat race with tourists looking for places to eat dinner and this restaurant was a perfect spot to slow down and enjoy pasta, wine, and good service.

  • 4/5 Franklin B. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The food is spectacular. Fresh and homemade pasta. However, four stars out of five because the prices are quite high for the price-quality-experience ratio of the restaurant. (Original) La comida espectacular. Pasta fresca y casera. Sin embargo cuatro estrellas de cinco porque la verdad los precios están bastante altos para la relación precio-calidad-experiencia del restaurante.

    We went here due to their good selection of vegetarian pasta dishes and we were very impressed. The pastas were incredible and the sauces were rich and flavorful. The portions are generous. Their cocktails are good and strong. The place is small and classy, nice for a quiet dinner with conversation.

    Hands down amazing food. Everything I come to Cartagena, I always make at least one reservation here (I always end up eating here twice on my trips). Everything is delicious and authentic. From their house made bread and pasta to their delicious tiramisu. Staff is courteous and service is phenomenal. Donde Wippy is one of my and my family's favorite spot to eat!
