😐 The place is cozy, and the menu is extensive which is good. The waiter new the menu and made recommendations (which i value a lot). The ingredients are fresh, however cooking techniques are average and you can find most of the dishes cheaper in other places. They have an italian beer called Moretti... People often mention good,

    The place is cozy, and the menu is extensive which is good. The waiter new the menu and made recommendations (which i value a lot). The ingredients are fresh, however cooking techniques are average and you can find most of the dishes cheaper in other places. They have an italian beer called Moretti, really good and smooth. Best thing I tried: Sicilian Sausages ♡. The dishes were well cooked. The pasta was just a little bit undercooked, but I dont mind, because it has to be undercooked for when you throw the rest of the ingredients. One thing i noticed: i ordered sparkling water and the glass was not fully clean..it had finger and dish soap stains. I recommend the restaurant to keep an eye on this. Other than that, it was a good experience because the waiter made us feel like comfortable and even though it was almost closing time, he never rushed in a bad way. There are thing they could improve but other than that, congrats! You guys are on the right path.

    Very good choice of Italian food in the city of Santo Domingo. They have the most classic dishes of Italian food such as Burrata, Rissoto and fresh elaborated pasta made the same day. Although the menu is not very wide, it has enough variety to feel like in the Bella Italia. It is not a luxury restaurant, it is casual and small, so we recommend make reservation and not risk finding an unoccupied table.

    Flavourish mix of Italian and new touches by the chef. Food and service is great, although the place is a bit tight of space and uncomfortable chairs. Great selection of wines too. Will I visit again ? Yes indeed !

    Good food, good service / Buena Comida, buen servicio Came with family to celebrate a birthday... we were a large group and still they managed quite well to bring food relatively fast... I had the Pesto Burrata risotto which was very tasty, others in the group tried the signature dish, the penne Italia in Bocca and was delicious... everyone in the group was happy with their food... appetizers were good as well with the Rivera Burrata being a highlight. Overall a very good experience.

    Cozy Italian restaurant with great and polite waiters. So far one of the best pasta I've tried. A little pricy, but totally worth it! Highly recommended.

    If you're reading this is because you're not sure, but I'll tell you right now that this place is special. Me and my wife had a great time on our anniversary. The food is good, YOU REALLY HAVE TO TRY THE PESTO BURRATA, it was so delicious. The only detail was that my fettuccine was a little undercooked.

    Extremely slow service. Food is on, but overpriced.

    Light, fluffy croissant and a strong, rich Americano. This is a popular neighborhood spot with lots of customers.

    Could use a better coffee machine, but the food is great both in the cafe and the restaurant, many traditional italian options!

👍👍 The venue is very cute, the view on the ocean is spectacular. The staff was super friendly this day. The food was really good and arrived extremely fast. I had Mofongo (So delicious) and Sancocho (very good)! The only pros was the dessert.
