A Taste Of Italy: Reviews & Ratings
The restaurant we were supposed to go to was closed, so we decided to go here and boy did it not disappoint. This a family-owned business with amazing food with plenty of taste. We had the rice balls, penne with garlic and butter and the bowtie and bacon dish. All were phenomenal.
Always a must a couple times each trip. Like Roger says always “Welcome Home”. Food is good and plenty! May have a bit of a wait. But worth it
Roger is always there to greet his clients and give them love. Lots of menu items to choose from. It can be busy and they work on volume so you are in and out fairly quickly. Dishes are very good. Wait staff are attentive but not overbearing. Prices are fair. Busy corner for pedestrian traffic. I can recommend it. More menu photos.
Always a great place for a dinner in Puerto Vallarta. The food is always great, the staff is friendly and attentive and the location is the atmosphere. It is always on our must do restaurants in PV. If you haven't tried it and you like italian food, you should definitely give it a try
Good food at a fair price in a great atmosphere, overlooking the Lazaro Cardenas Park (Parque Lazaro Cardenas). But most important the staff was honest! I accidentally gave my waiter a one-hundred-euro bill in place of a one hundred peso bill because I was tired from an international flight. The waiter, Roger, carried off my bill folder and thanked me as I stood up and walked out of the restaurant. Roger caught me at the door just outside the restaurant and told me of the mistake I had made. He handed me back the money, and I gave him the correct change as he explained to me that his morals wouldn't allow him to keep that money and make that mistake. In my opinion, this makes this one of the best restaurants to frequent as I know I'm going to be treated well and my business is appreciated by the owners and associates.
This place smells so good it got us in the door. The food looked amazing looking at other people's. The pricing is good and the portions are big. My family of five was stuffed. We all got different meals. Pizza, poutine, hamburger and subs. All were amazing and the staff was so friendly.
Awesome burgers and friendly service, very reasonable prices. 3 margaritas are super. Book ahead for tables especially on Wednesdays when they have home made lasagna. This is a favorite place for locals.
This restaurant offers decent Italian food at good prices. The service is fine. Sometimes it’s very busy. I like to go there, but not very often.
