    The venue is wonderful. The drinks were terrific. The service started out well, but we felt we were being rushed all night. The food, which is the whole point, fell flat. Carpaccio appetizer was sliced so thin we had to use a butter knife to get it off the plate. Flavor was good. Veal Milanese was tough & dry. The very tiny side dish of sauce wasn’t nearly enough and everything was lacking in flavor. Sale e Pepe helped. I left half of it uneaten. Flounder Meunière was another tasteless dish. My wife didn’t finish it either. For $56 & $48, respectfully, it was overpriced for the taste & quality we received. We would return for drinks, but not for dinner.

    This is the most authentic Italian restaurant I’ve been to on all of Marco Island and Naples. The food, drinks and service were all outstanding and the ambiance is special. My wife and I have been vacationing on Marco Island and Naples for two months, we’ve been to numerous local restaurants and this was our favorite dining experience.

    A wonderful experience. We sat outside and had a beautiful view of the gulf. Even though it was dark you still could hear the waves and look up at the stars. Our sever was wonderful. She thoroughly explained the menu and was very nice. The food was excellent! The only negative was that they include a 20% gratuity to be shared among the staff and in order to specifically tip your server you have to leave more on top of that. That was strange since I haven’t seen that at any other restaurant on the island so far. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    The food was very good but the service and the time it took to get our food was ridiculous! Our waitress was nice but she didn’t understand English very well which made it even more challenging.

    This is one of my very favorite restaurants. It is a managed to like clockwork. Our waiter, Mauro explained all the specials in great detail. One of the best waiters I have met in a long time. He was professional, knowledgeable,caring and kind. Coral was an on point assistant that did not miss a beat. We really appreciated the kind manager and moral making my granddaughter's eighth birthday special.  Thank you everyone, for I can't wait to come back for my birthday in April!
