My group and I stopped here while on a week long vacation in Cancun. We stay on a resort nearby and…read morego out to eat every night and this place is a must stop every year. It is one of my favorite restaurants in the hotel zone and some the best Italian I have eaten. We had a group of 10 and were seated in a private room. The service is top notch. Everyone is so helpful and kind. They have an extensive wine list that is sure to satisfy any craving. Before dinner, they bring bread with cheese and spicy onions and peppers that is delicious. My personal favorite meal is the green hats, but I really don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything they serve is the perfect balance of flavors. Everyone in our group loves their meal which is why this place continues to be a staple for us year after year. I look forward to coming back to Cancun just to eat at the restaurant. Our time and money is always well spent here and we have always had a wonderful time and incredible food. We do not do all inclusive, but even if you do, I would still recommend making a stop here.

We started out with their meatballs (cut with a fork tender) and mussels (delish). Their Cesar salad was equally amazing and could be shared with 3 people. I had the lobster fettuccine Alfredo, so so good! My husband had the seafood pasta that came out foil wrapped and steaming. Seafood was tender full of flavor. Their ragu meat sauce tortellini was homemade and the sauce was heavenly! Even the pepperoni pizza had great crust and sauce flavor. Size was big! We sat outside on the cobblestone street where they come by and play music, such an amazing experience. Service is friendly! Oh and our wine and cosmopolitan perfect!

On to the food, if a restaurant with a view and an outstanding staff doesn't make you want to try this, then here's the food portion: their house bread WOW sooo good and their vinaigrette and EVOO yes, yes, yes! The fried calamari, delish, crispy, fresh and good seasoning. The chicken parmigiana was absolutely delicious, the sauce was right on point not too much to overpower the chicken, the breading was very well seasoned and the cheese YES!! The fettuccine Alfredo was good, could've had a little more sauce but it was tasty. This is a must try if you come to Cancun

We have been to Isla 7 or 8 times now. Have tried so many places it feels like we have eaten at more places that we have not. Not too many places have we gone to that when we left, we say we will be back here. This is that place. Exceptional food, authentic tasting Italian food in Isla. Dan (husband of the owner team) came and visited with us a couple times. You can tell he loves the place as much as anyone. Next time we come down from Washington, we will be back, probably multiple times.

Located on the top level, Casa Nostra has a good view of the city. I wouldn't say it's the best because the views do not face the beach. Nonetheless it's still a beautiful place especially at night where you can enjoy the city lights. The food here is excellent. The staff are very friendly, attentive. The food recommendations were also on point as we loved all the dishes. The pasta we ordered were creamy and packed full of flavor. The tuna tartare was fresh and the lobster pasta was delicious. Overall if you're looking for great Italian with a romantic view I highly recommend coming here!

We were greeted and offered menus within moments. Neither of us were drinking alcohol, so we had a big bottle of San Pelegrino for the two of us. As a starter, we ordered a large pizza. It appeared in about 15 minutes. The moms made crust was thick around the edges. They didn't over do it with the sauce and it was really good. Then we ordered gnocchi. I had it it a red sauce and my friend had it in an Alfredo. Both were absolutely excellent. We were offered dessert and we had ice cream and a lemon tart. The lemon tart was huge and I could not finish it. The restaurant was busy, but not loud. We were never rushed. Our dinner lasted about 1 1/2 hours, which was just perfect. Definitely recommended.

We never felt rushed but always were attended to. The food came with the perfect attention to detail and timing. At no point did I feel rushed or a burden to anyone. What an amazing feeling. Now the food! I am from a very prominent Italian food area and I was very impressed with that selections. The lasagna was stunning, the carbonara needed nothing and gave you that sweet hug from the inside you dream of. I got the ravioli with butternut squash and ricotta. I was stunned. It has been over a week since I had it and I still dream about it at night. What a hidden gem!
