Dinner for two with drinks, dessert and a main dish for $25 (tax and tip included).

She lived in Italy for 10 years and only makes pasta fresh and by hand. You will likely meet her sweet boys while you are there. She has a limited menu of about six different pasta options, we had the ravioli, the Ragu and the shrimp tagliatelle and they were all amazing. The ravioli was our absolute favorite though. At first we were a bit surprised that the location was very off the beaten path and also that it was a family home as well as a restaurant, but we were so glad we stayed and enjoyed the entire experience.

The sauce wasn't too thick or oily. It was a perfect combination and the ravioli was cooked well. There was a buy one get one deal with pizzas so we got the margarita and the Classico.

Great consistency, meat texture, and combination of sauces. We got the unlimited mango juice for our drinks and our waitress, Virgie, never let our glasses run dry. As close to Italian as you can get here in Boracay and its exceptional! 11/10!

Walking along the strip of restaurants and shops at the beach of Station 2 in Boracay, Mom spotted…read moreDon Vito's s sign, advertising that they were serving Bibingka (Filipino baked rice cake cooked in banana leaves) and Puto Bumbong (Filipino purple rice cake steamed in bamboo tubes). Mom had to stop by for the latter, one of her favourite Filipino sweets traditionally sold during the Christmas season. I, myself, was a little surprised that such Filipino cakes were being offered at an Italian restaurant, but, hey, we were in a tourist area of the Philippines, so why not, I figured. After an all-day land tour of Boracay, we had some time to kill before meeting up with a friend for dinner. This is when I accompanied Mom to Don Vito Ristorante Italiano to pick up her coveted Puto Bumbong. We arrived shortly before 7:15 PM on Friday, November 15, 2024, and were seated in the front patio while we awaited the to-go order. No tables were occupied in the outdoor dining area, but I could see that there were a few customers dining inside. Overall, the venue appeared to be clean and well kept. The waitress who took our order knew that we were not staying to dine in. Still, she was kind enough to serve to us a complimentary plate of toasted bread and dipping sauce to nibble on while we awaited our one-item order. I believe that the ramekin of dipping sauce was some kind of balsamic vinegar-based dressing. I tried one bite of the bread with sauce. I was not a fan. After about a ten-minute wait, the server brought to us the order of Puto Bumbong (Php 150, 2 pcs), already boxed up for take-out. Immediately, Mom was dismayed by the shredded cheese that topped the cylindrical rice cakes. She expected them to be slathered with butter and sprinkled with sugar and coconut, just as the sign described. She was turned off by the condensed milk and grated cheese which she tried to scrape off. It was too late, though. The cakes were ruined and so was Mom's experience. The kind waitress offered to have them remade, but Mom declined because she thought that we were pressed for time. Not sure why they would add unexpected ingredients to a dish and neglect to offer the option of adding them instead of assuming that they would be agreeable to customers. Hope that the restaurant learned a lesson here. Needless to say, Don Vito's disappointed Mom big time.

Although there is no longer beach seating, we were able to get a table on the main floor. The service team were friendly and fast.
