I've never been here before. They ordered a couple of pizzas (can't remember the type) and a few pastas (sorry, can't remember their orders). I only remembered my order which was black ink seafood tagliolini. It was very good. Anyway, they chose this restaurant because it is one of their favorite Italian restaurants that handmake their pasta. I just remember liking everything I tasted. Would like to come back when I am not distracted by their little kids running around.

I was travelling and this was my only visit for lunch. It was a great meal. The inside of the…read morerestaurant is decorated well. There is seating upstairs. The place is a great setting for a power lunch, "ladies who lunch", or a very nice dinner. I ordered a bellini and it was great. Not too sweet and just the right alcohol content. For the meal we ordered the lobster ravioli and a meat pizza. My only critique of the meal is that although the pizza was good, perhaps a Neapolitan style would make it more authentic and differentiate from other available pizzas. The service was exceptional. The prices were reasonable for what we ordered. I noticed in the menu other full meal classic Italian meals for moderate prices.One more critique, the tiramisu seemed like it was not thawed out enough indicating too frozen. The cappuccinos were deftly made with authentic italian brew. All ingredients were authentic including the gorgonzola cheese on the salads. Definitely will try this place again, and at night for another meal.

I remember during quarantine in 2021, my friend sent me the roasted chicken and since then I couldn't get over the juiciness and flavors of it. So I had to order it for myself this time. The veggies that come along with it and the sauce is so flavorful. Kind of wish the chicken was bigger because it's just that good! The pizza was okay not the best I've had but it was a nice snack to try. I didn't get to try the pasta because I was just really into my chicken. I'd only recommend this place if you want to try it. It's quite pricey for the portions but it is an authentic Italian restaurant out here in the Philippines. The interior is quite nice and they do have outdoor seating. However the time we came it was excruciatingly humid. So we dined inside. Service was good. The staffs were quite attentive and can speak English to help those who don't speak Tagalog. I see why my friends would rave about the chicken though. I do recommend that as something to try.

We ordered the "family meal"?? which contain a rice with ribs and chicken breast, pizza, 2 salads, 2 varieties of pasta, and 4 iced tea. The pasta taste good i think one of them was the Pollo Pizzamente, the other pasta i totally forgot what kind, we ordered the Mona Liza pizza to go with it too and orange juice for me, and some calamari (i like how they make their calamari). The orange juice taste different but not in a bad way, i like it! it looks like pineapple juice but it taste like orange. Service was good and the staff were very helpful with our inquiries. For the dessert we ordered tiramisu however after tasting a little of it we learned that it has whiskey in it so i had to order a different dessert for myself.
