    Private Dining Enclave

    What a well kept secret! This fabulous Argentinian / Italian restaurant just opened in May and it checks all the boxes! The food was amazing! All sauces are made fresh each morning and they were delicious! Both the Pesto and the Marinara sauce were so fresh and homemade! The service was so warm and inviting. The ambiance was comfortably romantic. We dined al fresco in the garden on a hot summer night and it couldn't have been more perfect. Enjoy this restaurant while it hasn't been discovered yet because once it has been, reservations will be hard to come by!

    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 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.

    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.

    A new restaurant located off of 41. The owners here own three other El Gaucho restaurants in Naples. Best Italian food I've had in Naples yet. Everything was so fresh and the flavor was INCREDIBLE. Our waiter Eduardo was so friendly and helped us pick the best items on the menu. I'm definitely coming back!!

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

The atmosphere is cozy with warm lighting, making it a good spot to relax and enjoy a meal. There is also a bar area with TVs, which felt a little different from the typical Italian vibe, but it did not take away from the experience. Service was friendly, but it was a busy Saturday night and you could definitely feel it. Everything moved a bit slower, and we had to wait about 10 to 15 minutes for the check at the end because our server was not around. We started with the meatballs in red sauce and really enjoyed them. Simple, flavorful, and a great appetizer to share. One thing I was not expecting was being charged for the bread. It was fresh and good, but it is not something I usually associate with Italian restaurants. For the main course, we had the cacio e pepe. The flavor was there, but the sauce was a bit too liquid for my preference. It is a difficult dish to get right, and while it was good, I think it could have been a little better. The tiramisu was absolutely the highlight. The balance between the cream and the ladyfingers was spot on, and it ended up being my favorite thing we ordered. Overall, good location, nice atmosphere, and solid food. The tiramisu is the one thing I would absolutely come back for.

The dish I got was decent, but I travel all over for work, and it is nothing memorable that I will come back to.

We had a great table and our server came with our menu and the wine list as well as some crusty bread. There are numerous salads, appetizers, entrees, and even pizza on the menu. I started with a Caesar salad, which I thought was super pricey, but was very good. I was able to enjoy it before I ordered my entree. I chose the gnocchi and a glass of wine. The gnocchi came out in minutes and was some of the lightest, fluffiest gnocchi I have had since New York City ages ago. Good choice. The server wasn't rushing us, but let us enjoy our meal at our pace, which was refreshing. Overall, nice experience.

The veal was paper-thin, incredibly tender, and still on the bone. It wasn't overly breaded at all, and it came with a side of pasta that made the portion even more impressive.

Beyond the food, the restaurant feels genuinely Italian--like being transported straight back to Florence. It's small, intimate, and cozy, with both indoor and outdoor seating options that make the experience even more special. Service here has and never will be a disappointment, you always feel like family! On a previous visit, I tried the lobster mac and cheese, and it was equally delightful and incredibly flavorful.

Definitely not for those with claustrophobia!! We were initially told they don't take reservations, yet several parties arrived claiming they had reservations.

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.

Atmosphere/vibe: it was pretty empty when we went at 3pm but that was perfect for us. The only downside was when we walked inside to use the restroom.
