Absolute best Italian food I have ever had... EVER. The restaurant is small enough to feel cozy but not too crowded, the staff are very professional and friendly. They never let our drinks run out and did so without ever interrupting our conversations. They have a great selection of wine and the menu variety made it so everyone had something that would appeal to their tastes. I wish we had a place like this back at home.
Charming intimate Italian restaurant. Everything is made in-house. We were attended to by the owner who carefully explained the menu to us which included a few specials. Everything was extraordinary. You must try this wonderful place. Recently awarded one of the top 100 restaurants in Mexico. The list of delites is too long to list. Do try the Escargot, you will thank me.
We went there around 7pm, there was not a single customer. It was quiet inside, we didn't hear kitchen sounds or anything. No one greeted us until we fully entered, then a woman came and seated us, no menu or water or offer to bring drinks. We sat alone and quiet for about 5 minutes and then left. It didn't even smell like food. Not sure what the deal is.
Authentic Italian food, a true gem in Ensenada. Perfect for date night, birthdays, or any occasion. Incredibly attentive service and we loved that the owner provided a personal tour of the menu. We thoroughly enjoyed spending our anniversary there.
I seriously doubt it will be long before they receive their first michelin star. Thank you for this wonderful authentic Italian experience. Amazing and very respectful and responsive staff. We will definitely be back at least two to three times a year here.
