    Restaurant opened this past May

    Amazing fresh food, excellent service, a very pleasant surprise. Italian/Argentine menu has a number of veal dishes along with the expected other proteins & vegetarian dishes. Wine list is nice, fairly priced . . and the server recommended a very nice $50 malbec over others twice the price. Also have outdoor seating available. Go explore!

    Mariana our server was extremely knowledgeable and so very pleasant and welcoming. Made excellent recommendations. Great experience.

    This place is so unassuming. Tucked in to a shopping plaza, you'd never guess it has some of the best Italian food in regards of flavor and presentation. Mariana was our server and bartender. She made an espresso martini that was the second best my girl has ever had. That is a high bar to pass. My dirty martini with blue cheese olives was excellent as well. We had the calamari to start. They were so lightly breaded, you could see thru the breading to the white flesh beneath. So tasty. She had the chicken francaise and when it came out, she had no idea it would be so big! Definitely come hungry. I had the Seafood a la macho. It said it would be spicy, but it wasn't. It was delicious though. So much calamari in it, I couldn't tell where they stopped and the noodles began. That's another great for them, each dish, you pick the noodles it is on. All in all, this was a great little spot that was a surprise to have Argentinian Italian food that hits so good!

    This is an awesome new restaurant in the Naples and Bonita Springs area. The ambiance is great and the food staff is outstanding. Our waiter gave us wonderful recommendations. I was looking for an Italian placed that served Spaghetti Carbonara and theirs was good and truly authentic. The appetizers were great as well as the main courses. Loved their Sangria as well as the desserts and cappuccinos. I have been to their other restaurant in Estero which is also great as well. Will be coming here again.

    This is a lovely new restaurant in Naples/Bonita Springs. We heard about it by accident because we are fans of the Gaucho Inca and the Gaucho Inca Deli. This is their newest concept. It is difficult to see from the road because it's deep in the corner of the shopping center. We ordered the Scampi with Penne pasta and a traditional Argentine pizza with roasted red peppers, ham and green olives. The crust was on the thin side, which is fine, although traditionally Argentine pizza has a thicker crust. But the flavors were definitely on point. Well done. FYI the olives do have pits, so be careful when you take that first bite. We enjoyed the food and the service was excellent. The prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. We will definitely be back.

    I loved the food, a super cozy and elegant place, very professional service, we had a wonderful evening

    5th avenue is so cute…read more This place was perfect. We got in late and this place is one of very few that are open late. The service was excellent. Juanita was so pleasant and helpful. The food was so fresh. The pizzas are and absolute must. You can't go wrong. The sauce is perfectly balanced and the dough is excellent The salad was solid and fresh The Carbonara was good but wouldn't do it again. It's pretty traditional but just fell a little flat. The kids food was great also. The table side tiramisu is a lot of fun

From the moment we sat down, the energy and ambiance set the tone -- lively, authentic, and exactly what you hope for in a great Italian spot. The food was exceptional across the board. The chicken parm was perfectly prepared, the carbonara rich and authentic, and the chicken piccata balanced beautifully with bright, fresh flavors. Every dish felt like it was made with real care and tradition. Dessert took it to another level -- the gelato was fantastic, but the real highlight was the tableside homemade tiramisu, which was both impressive and absolutely delicious. A perfect ending... until the espresso martinis arrived. Smooth, well-crafted, and honestly some of the best we've had. What truly made the night unforgettable was the service. Leonardo -- straight from Amalfi, Italy -- delivered one of the best dining experiences we've ever had. Attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm, he elevated the entire evening. Great food, incredible service, and an outstanding vibe. We'll absolutely be back.

    Met a buddy from Seattle for my 73rd birthday lunch. Known him for 51 years…read more I got there when it opened 45 minutes before reservation. It was great. Sit wherever you want. Sat inside people and car watching. Cars were by far more eye-catching than women. Ferraris, Lambo, Aston Martin, Bugatti, real lookers. Friend showed up on time. Hot bread arrived. Plenty of good olive oil on table. He had tri-colored salad and I had seafood salad. Not a trace left of either although mine could have had less creamy lemon vinaigrette dressing. Word to wise, perhaps ask for it on the side. He had veal shank with risotto. Me? I had the corvina stew. Ask for a spoon, it's that good. Ordered sautéed spinach and roasted potatoes with herbs. Only thing left was a few grains of risotto and 7 small pieces of the potatoes. The shank was arguably the biggest portion I've seen. Since it was my birthday we were comped a dessert, double espresso and a cappuccino. Plus the dessert had a lit candle along with a table side a cappella Happy Birthday. Although other tables were occupied we had privacy regarding our conversations. Alex was spectacular. Puglia area native. I recommend this place. Great time.

    First time here and sadly, we won't be returning. Restaurant was packed with customers seated so…read moreclosely to each other. Wait staff kept bumping into me and my purse. Definitely not for those with claustrophobia!! We were initially told they don't take reservations, yet several parties arrived claiming they had reservations. We also requested indoor seating, but despite plenty of empty tables inside, the owner insisted we wait for outdoor seating because "more people were coming." Meanwhile, regulars appeared to receive preferential treatment and were seated ahead of others. As for the food, the fried calamari, shrimp, scallops, and smelt were the highlights. All crispy, fresh, and very enjoyable. Unfortunately, the marinara sauce tasted watered down, and while both pasta dishes were cooked perfectly al dente, they lacked seasoning and flavor overall. Bar service limited to beer and wine. Disappointing experience due to the inconsistent service and uneven dining experience.
