I was a little intimidated to eat here because I was unsure of the service and price. So heads up!! The $200-300 price is in pesos and the servers are all really nice and some try to speak English and appreciate if you try to speak Spanish! I believe it was either the owner or manager that helped us, seated us and took our order. Very busy here, but only waited a couple minutes. Pretty prompt service, otherwise I asked someone for something and they got it right away. I appreciated them telling us pizza would take a while and it really didn’t! Bruschetta was awesome flavor even for two pieces and pizza is super good. Fresh ingredients and the crust is not super thin, but enough to not make you full after a slice or two. Share a pizza if there are two of you!
Great people and excellent food. You’ll feel welcomed instantly and leave perfectly satisfied (l love the pizza and my partner enjoyed the Greek salad, which is nicely chunky)
Fast and friendly service from Arturo. The gelato was fantastic. Live jazzy music was a surprise bonus. Not too loud with comfortable lighting.
Our favorite spot in Nuevo Vallarta. Casually elegant with excellent, friendly, and professional service. The salads are always filled with farm fresh greens and perfect dressings, from the Fragola with spinach, arugula, strawberry, pear and goat cheese, the Lombarda with arugula roasted pear. almond and gorgonzola, to an excellent caprese. We've never actually tried the pastas since we love the pizza so much. My favorite us the Buonissimo with bacon onion, gorgonzola and arugula. But they are all good here... it's impossible to make a wrong choice since all have perfect crusts impeccably baked in the wood burning oven. Start with one of their properly made cocktails and finish with one of their wide variety of gelatos. And all of it at a fair price... which is more then you can say for many restaurants in the area
A very comfortable dinner with excellent service and great food. Large menu where you can certainly find something to your liking. Calamari Fritto a good one to start. The salads are fresh and tasty. Paninis should satisfy your appetite with a good selection. Finish off with a bowl of gelato and a cappuccino. Perfect evening.
We loved sitting outside by the colorful fountain. Food was absolutely delicious! Definitely went the extra mile w/our granddaughter AND the rest of us adults!
We usually go to abother breakfast spot but we're pleasantly surprised by how good this place was. Great service and unique yummy meals! Will be back
We just had breakfast, the waffles were one of the best I have had, fluffy and tasty. Our server Leonardo was great. Cudos to the chef.
