My favorite Italian restaurants with amazing live music. The owner of the restaurant is a Pastry chef. The dessert, tiramisu, was the best creamy fluffy authentic taste. The restaurant have different seasonal menu which impressed me. The oysters were very fresh and very well balanced. Satisfied. Upscale mood and warm environment to enjoy food. If you are looking for a moody, aesthetic food plating, please visit for the dinner. The dishes were well beyond my expectations. The food waiting time was a little long (about 30-35) but listening to live music was very nice to wait with. Total worth of money.

It was underwhelming and flavourless. The food tasted bland and there was a hair in the popsicle. The drinks were good though

The food is really good, I recommend the sancocho (meat soup) with some patacones as an appetizer. It is more for lunch I think and it’s convenient to go with all the family. They have a variety of menu with different kind op options even for kids.
