Our server "Nico" was a super pleasant fellow that worked very hard to provide great table service, albeit just a dash slow. I think it was a kitchen issue. The ambiance was casual but still nice. Crushed stone floor for this indoor/outdoor restaurant. Restaurant served no charge table bread with dips. The food was delicious. I had the off-menu fettuccine Alfredo ($190p) with Ham & Mushrooms (they forgot the mushrooms)? Even without the mushrooms it was delicious. This is a definite do over.

I paid at the bar, no problem. All in all, a delicious experience, and we would definitely return!

The dishes are authentic to Italy, and in my own personal experiences traveling there, better than most restaurants you can afford let alone find, in Italy. Multiple attendants serve you - we didn't have a moment without hydration or service. They were very attentive and very professional. Also, we had a great table in the back, for our group of 9. Before I end this review I have to give my extreme props to this place- for getting Italian food right!! Every dish I took a bite of, I wanted to cry. This is how it's meant to be- Italian food AND eating out at a restaurant. The espresso at the end - made me cry. So perfect.

It's in a great location which makes it quite easy to grab a quick glass of wine and people watch. They did some nice upgrades in decor and added more TV's. The chairs at the bar are not designed for comfort though so it's hard to just relax since you feel like you are sitting crammed straight up. Minor inconvenience though. They push Veuve Clicquot heavily here with advertising everywhere but most places are like that. They probably have a deal with their vendor for that. The wine list is solid and the bartenders are very friendly.

The salads were generous portions with a nice dressing and fresh lettuce and cheese and we're tasty. The calzones were good but I wouldn't say spectacular. They needed more filling meat, etc. but we're hot and tasty. We ordered water and we were brought bottled water. We witnessed other tables getting water out of a pitcher. Would've appreciated the option, but it wasn't offered. Had to ask for a plate for the oils to enjoy the bread and oils no salt or pepper for the oils with the bread. The bread was dry almost crumbly but that's how it is here in Mexico. The wine was good. The service was good. Had to ask for a ticket but again I think that's how it is here in Mexico.

January 13/2025: Dinner with Al/Clem/Red…read more This was an alright dinner with a goodish ambiance. The server "Moses" was a very nice, polite & patient fellow. He delivered solid service, 5-Star. It rained during our meal so that did have an impact. As for the meal...it was a 3-Star at best. My appie was Bruschetta Pastorall ($147P). It was hot in flavour & decent tasting as well. My main was Chicken Parmesan with a creamy spaghetti ($379p + $75p for the spaghetti). They were good but not great. They SHOULD have been great for a $31.50 Cdn entree. And even though I asked in writing to have the meal extra hot...it was barely warm enough to NOT send back to the kitchen. This seems to be where most restaurants in the area drop the ball...taste & food temperature. Even though I ranked this a 4-star it's not really one...it's more like a 3.5. I doubt I'd come back here.

You feel like you are eating in a jungle. Most of the seating is outdoors but the jungle blocks views to and from the street. We went for thin crust pizza. The crust in fact very thin. I think my Mailina could have been in the oven a bit longer to brown more. I did not detect any sausage although the description said there should be. The wife got the Napoli and liked it. We started with Caprese salad. It was excellent. Best (most fresh tasting) I ever had. Service was inattentive. There was one guy who was waiter and street recruiter. It was too much for one person.

There is a hyped up "pitch man" standing outside encouraging people off the street to come in. He told me he could make a special that included a drink of "whatever I wanted" well since I was thinking of pizza anyway I decided to give it a try. I decided on a glass of Cabernet and even though it wasn't on the menu, a mixed salad. The waiter couldn't have been sweeter, he was very accommodating. I also asked for water and I noticed the waiter poured the water from a bottled water. I didn't question and assumed (u know the saying about a-ss-uming) that they just used bottled water since he didn't say anything. The mixed salad was simple but a nice size. I also ordered a margarita pizza. Well the pizza was just a cheese pizza with three pieces of basil. I asked for more basil and the waiter did bring a side of basil for me. This was really bad bland pizza! It reminded me of a frozen Digiorno and that was even being generous! When I received my bill...surprise! No special, it was only if you ordered 2 pizzas. Oh and also a tip was added on. I didn't mind the tip because honestly the waiter had nothing to do with the crappy food. I had heard that there was great pizza in Playa but this was NOT it! Not only was it my crappiest meal in Playa it was my most expensive!! Almost 30.00! And yep a-ss-uming, I was charged for the water. On my next visit to Playa, I will definitely avoid this place.
