Nice small restaurant with excellent staff. The food was just ok, and not really Italian. First, it is clear they cook/boil all of their pasta without salting the water. We were three customers, we each ordered a different pasta preparation and all immediately asked for salt. All their preparations were BLAND. We ordered shrimp scampi, chicken marsala and cannelloni. The scampi was an ODD PREPARATION, it included a significant amount of rough diced green peppers and tomatoes. The flavor was dominated by the green peppers, not garlic that is traditionally Italian. The sauce on the marsala preparation was oily, thick and seperated. The pasta was an garlic-oil preparation that was too oily. My cannelloni was over-baked, then covered in a white sauce. The stuffing of spinach and cheese was delicious, but the pasta shells were tough and the sauce too thick. Only one of the three of us finished our meals. Considering the cash cost, the overall experience was way too expensive. This restaurant needs to revisit their Italian recipes. They may appeal to local taste, or it may market itself as nouveau Italian , but it is far from classic/traditional Italian cuisine.
We walked past a handful of places and took a random shot at a meal here and boy are glad we did!! The atmosphere is great. We were greeted warmly and sat immediately, even though there were other guests. Then, as we were waiting for our drinks, the owner came out and introduced himself and his wife, Ferrari. He's Argentinian born and she's from Italy, so they started this amazing little restaurant with all their favorite dishes. Hearing the owner describe the menu, it was clear he takes personal responsibility and pride in the offerings. When the meals came, we were blown away. The flavors were balanced and complementary. It felt like going to a friends house for dinner. We chose to eat on the street (which was great) and enjoyed the warm carribean breeze one more time before we fly to Chicago. One of the best meals we had in Puerto Rico, for sure. Highly recommended.
Very attentive staff and delicious food. Must try the empanadillas cheese and bacon my favorite (with a side of chimichurri sauce). Will definitely add it to my next visit to the island.
Awesome small family owned restaurant that features an Italian inspired menu with a twist on local Puerto Rican dishes. The owner was incredibly friendly and spent a good bit of time just hanging out chatting with us then sent a port wine over for my wife and I to enjoy after our amazing meal.
