    Must visit in Nha Trang. Not a lot of Italian restaurants in Vietnam that are this authentic! Restaurant is beautiful, food is delicious and tastes very fresh. The bruschetta is a perfect starter and the Parmigiana Eggplant Pie is a delicious, indulgent but healthy dish. Underrated item on the menu for sure! Prices are VERY fair for the quality of food you’re getting. Service is friendly. Would recommend booking a table, can be pretty busy!

    A great experience all around. Made my reservation via Facebook Messenger, and they were very responsive. The service was very good. I especially appreciated when the staff joined our table to an adjacent one to accommodate all the dishes we ordered. The pizza was authentic and delicious. The lasagna was wonderful but unlike any I've had before. The noodles were thin and delicate. The sauce was bang on. The salad was great, as was the bruschetta - multiple variations on one plate. I wish we had room for dessert. There will be a next time! Last but not least, the layout and decor was lovely.

    Great little Italian restaurant in center of the city in Nha Trang. They give out bread at the beginning which is really nice touch, just be careful of the spicy chili oil - very delicious but it has a kick. We got the clam spaghetti and the eggplant pie dish along with a Mediterranean salad. Everything was great but the eggplant dish was definitely a highlight, don’t miss it

    We tried their lasagna and La cala pizza, It's so good. The pizza crust is 10/10. I would love to come back here whenever I visit Nha Trang.

    We drove 100km here because we were craving a good pizza, or 2 (lol). That should say a lot about the place!! We love their sourdough pizza, especially the Parma con arugula. Tiramisu is amazing. The ambience brings us back to sunny Italy. And the service is 5 stars as well! One time we arrived when our baby was asleep, the staff lowered the music and even asked the chef to avoid making loud noises.

    The food is just outstanding! Very fresh and true Italian products are used. The decoration is also very nice! Appreciate the details. Been there twice, and the service was slow both times compare to other places. But worth anyway!

    I had an incredible dining experience at La Cala restaurant. The ambiance was charming, creating a perfect setting for a romantic dinner. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable, offering excellent recommendations. Now, the food – it was exceptional! The flavors were authentic and truly delicious. I highly recommend trying their homemade dishes; they were a highlight. Overall, a fantastic Italian culinary journey that I can't wait to repeat!

    Authentic Italian restaurant in Nha Trang! Great service and staff! The pizza is properly made in a pizza oven and the crust is excellent! The octopus salad is exquisite too. We got given homemade limoncello at the end of our meal! I would recommend this Italian restaurant from an Italian woman! We’ll come back again!

    If you want to find a place with standard Italian food as well as cozy and lovely surroundings, this one is really for you. Italian decor and details make you feel welcoming. Service is fast and friendly. Prices are reasonable. My friends and I tried most of dishes on the menu, and nearly none of them makes us down. We are really enjoy this one, and highly recommend it to those who want to enjoy the best Italian restaurant in Nha Trang. Below are some nice pics for your reference.

    As an Italian living in Vietnam for over a decade, I always like a taste of home. In all those years none have come close, until today. Oh wow! It's almost worth moving cities for this pizza. It's that good I had 2 more last night, and a final 2 the next day. 3 days, 6 pizzas and I still want more Just amazing!

    Grazie Mille, La Cala! Eat here if you want a delicious, authentic Italian meal served by friendly staff in a relaxing and beautiful setting! My husband and I lived in Rome for awhile and the diavolo pizza was as good as or better than what we remember having there! The owner is so kind, and you can see how much passion is put into his business. I only wish we had found this place sooner- we would have come back everyday!

    Delicious pizza and pleasant atmosphere. I didn’t really like the tiramisu, there are better ones) the Apelol Spritz is sweet for some reason, so it seems to me that this is not the original, or not a classic recipe. The coffee is delicious. Looks like I'll update the review when we go for pasta or lasagna.

    A very authentic Italian restaurant in the heart of Nha Trang. The restaurant itself it's beautiful, has the typical Mediterranean vibes and designs. They have a woodfired pizza oven and they make beautiful sourdough pizzas. We came here almost every day while we stayed in Nha Trang. The pizzas were always excellent (became favorite pizza restaurants in the whole world even better than in Italy) the homemade tiramisu is one of the best I have ever had. Also the staff is super friendly and welcoming, they speak English and you can pay with card. They use quality ingredients so it's a bit more pricey but the service and the food is excellent here. Highly recommend it

    Enjoyed the bread & different oils to dip at the beginning. Eggplant parmigiana was the best. Seafood pasta was good. A little too al dente.

    Complimenti! Great authentic Italian restaurant in Nha Trang. Food as good as home made! (I'm Italian origin!). Imported Italian wines. Staff extremely helpful, friendly and courteous. Delighted to have met one of the owners, Nicola. Definitely a must if you're craving Italian in Vietnam!

    This local Italian restaurant is adorable. The decor is very natural aesthetic and has a Italian beach vibe. The food is delicious. The pizza and pasta we had were so flavorful. The people working there are friendly and speak English well. If you are looking for a tiny break from the delicious Vietnamese cuisine then this is a great place to do that. Highly recommended!

    My friend and I recently visited an Italian restaurant and I have to say, it was an absolute delight! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm welcome and the aroma of delicious Italian cuisine filled the air. We tried the cheese pizza and it was a slice of heaven! The crust was crispy and the cheese was perfectly melted. The sauce was rich and flavorful, and I could taste the fresh ingredients in every bite. It was hands down the best pizza I've had in a long time in Nha Trang. But it wasn't just the food that made this place great - the wine selection was amazing too! They had a wide variety of vine options and the waiter was extremely knowledgeable and helped me pick the perfect one to pair with my meal. I had an absolutely amazing experience at La Cala. The ambiance was lovely, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was phenomenal. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Italian cuisine.

    A very good place with Italian cuisine and a pleasant atmosphere. Attentive and kind staff. I was very pleased with the wood-fired pizza oven. Food on solid 4 out of 5. The portions are large, the prices are above average. The atmosphere of a cute Italian restaurant.

  • 5/5 Stefan B. 6 months ago on Google
    Very nice restaurant on a small side street near the Panorama building. We had a reservation and got a table upstairs. The staff are very attentive and speak good English. The food was excellent. When it came to the tuna tartare, I first thought that the tuna pieces were very large, which was unusual. But the taste was great...the acidity of the marinade combined with the sweetness of the mango pieces...wow wow wow, perfect! The pizza with Parma ham and rocket is very large and very tasty. The portions of the noodles were enough for the women, but not big enough for my boyfriend. He had to order another portion. Price/performance is completely ok and justified here. We would be happy to come back and give five stars and an absolute recommendation!

    Such a nice, cozy place! Delicious pizza, high-level service, extremely polite and nice stuff! I’d definitely recommend this restaurant it’s like a little Italy with its Mediterranean vibes amid Asia! When we came first time right after we finished the pizza we got digestives (limoncello) so we were really pleased! Guys, thank you so much for such an experience

  • 5/5 Trish C. 6 months ago on Google
    All 3 dishes were very nice and a good size, perfect amount of food for 2 people. We had the octopus salad, carbonara and sausage and broccoletti pizza. Service was friendly, polite and efficient. Very enjoyable
