Honestly the best Italian food in PV. I got the chicken Parmesan and it was sooo perfect! Customer service and atmosphere is top tier!

Very nice meatball spaghetti with arrabiata sauce. Returned two nights later and ordered the chicken parmesan. It was a perfectly cooked split chicken breast served on a bed of al dente pasta properly finished in a mild arrabiata sauce. This place impresses me as it is as close to Italian, as I believe one can get in Mexico. The table was properly set with vinegar and oil and they brought warm bread to the table when I sat, just as it is done in the old country. Im upping my rating after two perfect meals... WELL DONE CHEF!

My wife and I recently stumbled upon this newer Italian restaurant in Puerto Vallarta, and it absolutely blew us away. The portions were generous (understatement of the year!)—my chicken parmigiana was massive, perfectly breaded, and smothered in a rich, flavorful sauce that tasted like it came straight out of Nonna’s kitchen. My wife ordered the lasagna, and it was everything you want in comfort food: dense, hearty, and layered with love. The sauces here are truly something special—clearly homemade and packed with bold, balanced flavor. We couldn’t leave without trying dessert, and we’re glad we didn’t. Every bite was decadent and beautifully presented. The service was attentive and friendly, making us feel genuinely welcome, and the atmosphere had a warm, lively charm that added to the whole experience. We’re already talking about coming back. If you’re in PV and craving top-notch Italian, this place is a must-visit. ⸻ Let me know if you’d like to add the name of the restaurant or tailor it for a specific review platform.

A gem in the Romantic Zone. Well back from the Malecon, not a busy street. An authentic ambience, you could be dining on a back street in Rome. We shared a bottle of Primitivo ( excellent wine ), an appetizer of portobello mushrooms and one of calamari. For a main, I had the lasagne which was excellent, not drowning in Bechamel sauce, and my wife had the chicken parmigiana. Limoncellos after the meal were complimentary. The owner/manager was in charge at all times and ensured that serving flowed seamlessly. The kitchen staff were hopping. We will definitely visit again!

The food is really good, highly recommend the pasta dishes, they have a decent wine list and a full bar... they can get busy so a reservation is probably recommended - but we waited less than 30 minutes... on Mondays they have live music so the outside patio gets packed... credit cards accepted

Had a really enjoyable dinner here. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared—classic Italian done right. The service was friendly and efficient without being overbearing. The ambience was warm and comfortable, making it a great spot for a relaxed evening out. Definitely a place I’d return to and recommend to others looking for good Italian meal.

Really good...I ate the pasta bolognese and it was a massive portion..order one and share..like lady and the tramp. Service is attentive and they all have a smile. They did seat me on valentines day... The only thing I would fix is the stale bread...but it's free..

Delicious Italian food in PV! We were able to get a semi last minute spot for dinner, and although it wasn't a patio spot we were happy to get in. Everything was delicious and freshly made. The kitchen is totally open to the restaurant so you can actually watch them prep your food. Service was very friendly too. Most of us had the seafood gnocchi, but the ravioli with salmon was also delicious. Great calamari too!! Definitely recommend.
