    We landed at this restaurant after walking around endlessly looking for a place to eat with no wait time. We arrived close to closing time and the restaurant was not busy. We were seated in their upstairs. Very quiet and romantic. We ordered the "grilled seafood" and the "peppered fillet" and both were amazing. The steak was amazingly delicious and the seafood was tender and fresh. The service was excellent. Unfortunately, a beautiful evening ended poorly when they informed me their credit card machine was down and to make matters worse I had left my ATM card back in the hotel. As this was our last evening in Cartagena we didn't have enough cash on hand to pay for our meal. We had to take a cab back to our hotel with our server, then walk several blocks to an ATM at 11pm. In the future I plan on carrying my ATM at all times

    This place is an absolute disgrace, avoid if you can unless you want to be very dissapointed. i really dont get the 5 star reviews this place gets. We waited for mains for nearly 2 hours, food came out messed up, waiters dripping sauce all over the place, plates came out all greasy and the food was not good. Staff takes 1 beer at a time from the kitchen. Its just simply a terrible experience. Avoid if you can

    As nearby restaurants had huge waiting lists we picked this restaurant which was, and remained to our astonishment, completely empty. Not a good sign at all. The food we ordered; bruschetta, ceviche and pasta with salmon took a relative long time to arrive (with the knowledge that we were the only guests). The ceviche was ok, but not spectacular, the pasta was tasty, but rather a small portion and the bruschettas were served with stale bread! Disappointing! you would at least expect those to be good. We learned our lesson, next time we will wait in line for the popular restaurants next door.

    Wonderful Private terrace to enjoy a nice fresh meal. The service was great... very accommodating and fast with our food. I strongly recommend this Italian Restaurant which also offers Good Ceviche

    I donā€™t really understand the 5 stars this place gets. Really really slow service, ill trained staff, messed up dishes, and even a waiter dripped down sauce down my brothers back. To top, the food is mediocre. Give this place a VERY WIDE BERTH if you can. Super disappointing.

    Should have known it wasn't going to be good. On a busy night across the city, they were empty. Still took a long time for service and the pasta tasted microwaved. Cold on some parts, hot in others. The steak was bland and chewy and the bread and butter looked like they came out of a pack. Overall, overpriced and not worth it.

    Came to eat here with my friends. The service is spectacularly slow. 2 hours before we got our food for a party of 10. The got multiple orders incorrect, and on my personal plate the baby beef came at room temperature. So did the friend next to me. Did I mention the service was spectacularly slow? Finally after they bring out the last of the plates my girlfriend had...you guessed it...no plate. They're asking us what we ordered and as a test I asked them what did we order...I mean they should know this!? This is not the type of service expected for the prices on their menu. Just extremely disorganized and bad service. I recommend going to any of the other wonderful places in this city.

    The restaurant looks very nice from the outside but the food is below than average. Service was good but really their ā€œitalianā€ food was very disappointing. Risotto was not made with Arborio but regular rice, parmesan wasnt parmesan and the grilled fish was fried.

    First: take a photo of your bill in case thereā€™s ā€œa problemā€ using your credit card. Second: when the problem is ā€œmiraculouslyā€ fixed when you walk up there make sure to ask for a copy of your receipt Third: When they canā€™t recreate the total of the meal because they canā€™t remember what you ordered, just let it go Fourth: when they remind you to provide a tip, include a simple amount thatā€™s close to 10%, but donā€™t waste too much time trying to do the math Fifth: if you see a mouse while trying to settle your bill, just keep your cool. Last: Leave quickly, and write an accurate review ā€œGreat food, bad serviceā€

    Bad experience. Ravioli undercooked. Staff not friendly. They started to clean the table before my girlfriend finished her plate. In addition the tip is added in the bill without any question. Cherry on the pie, the tip that was added was closer to 12% than the usual 10%.

šŸ‘ If the servers were only helpful and friendly I would give this restaurant five stars. The servers seem to have an attitude and an air of snootiness. Not acceptable. The food is well presented but it does take a while to get it. My Poblano crepe was quite acceptable. The mushroom crepe was super yum...
