Pasta seemed fresh, the sauces were good, the servers were attentive and spoke English, and it was very clean inside. Yes it's a little pricier, averaging maybe around €40 a person, but it's one of the best upscale places in the area with a STUNNING view of the ocean, so you get what you pay for. I recommend for a relaxed meal with friends or a date, and go during the day so you see the be view.

Two other friends had steak as well but with a Gorgonzola cheese sauce. They thought it was absolutely delicious. My hubby ordered the carbonara and it was one of the most outstanding versions ever. The carbonara sauce was amazing. The bacon was even crispy which is a rare sight! Service was friendly. The outside covered patio was beautiful, calm and a delightful place to have dinner. The inside of the restaurant was where the local diners were eating, sounded like a big party inside, while it was serene outside where we were. We had lots of pleasant dinner conversation without it being noisy! Wonderful dinner experience. Highly recommend!

Stopped in on a whim on a bustling Saturday night and were lucky to be seated outside immediately…read more We ordered: Bufalina pizza (yellow datterino tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, basil): impeccable. The crust was robust, crispy on the outside, and a little fluffy on the inside. The yellow tomato sauce was more of a juice and gave the pizza an interesting, more natural tomato flavor. The cheese was excellent. Tuna tartare: very fresh, with distinct flavors (salt, mint, fruit) that meld together nicely. The house wine- Sicilian, of course- was amazing: a crisp mineraly white and a red with notes of raisin, black fruit, and oak. The service was a little slow and gruff; our server seemed annoyed that we only ordered the tartare and pizza (which was plenty for two people!) but seemed to perk up a bit once we added wine and sparkling water.

My husband and I shared the Crudo Mare which was an assortment of freshly caught local raw fish including abalone, red prawns, tuna, snapper etc. it was interesting and a beautiful dish but honestly not my absolute favorite.

Would highly recommend this dish! Also tasted a few other dishes which were absolutely delicious including the Pasta Norma! The pistachio pesto dish was beautiful but much less flavorful.
