This family-owned and run restaurant in João Pessoa is in my opinion the best Italian restaurant in…read morethe Northeast of Brazil. It might also be the best restaurant in the city. I've eaten here several times and I have never been disappointed. All of the pastas here are homemade and they're all great. The sauces are varied and not just typical southern Italian red sauce. The service is also very good & the décor is also very tasteful. They also have a decent wine list with wines at reasonable prices. If you're here for dinner, they make pizzas in a brick oven (unfortunately, you can only get pizzas at dinnertime--not at lunch). At lunch, they also have a buffet and a lunch menu (I prefer to order from the regular menu); they also have valet parking. Oh yeah, the items on the regular menu serve 2, but even with help, two of us have never been able to finish the main course (which is just fine, cuz you get to have the doggy bag later).

The food is consistently good, especially the risotto's and the pasta, though I haven't had anything bad here. On Monday nights they have a pizza festival which is an all-you-can-eat deal where instead of going to a bar area and picking slices, the waiters walk around with pizzas fresh out of the oven and offer you a slice. I had been working at the Fiat Goiana plant which is an hour out of town, so often we wouldn't get back to Joao Pessoa until 9 or 10pm. Luckily they stay open 'till midnight, and even arriving at 10:00, there were plenty of other patrons.
