We are lovers of Italian food, and this restaurant was not a good example of this type of cuisine. Caesar salad and salad caprese was nice for appetizers. For our entres, we tried the penne bolognese and it was too dry. We also had the penne al vodka con salmone, but it was a little too fishy. Breadsticks were flavorless, but the olive oil/balsamic/garlic dip was good. Service was ok. They didn't have the wine we wanted, but gave us a nice alternative. Dessert of chocolate layer cake was light and flavorful.

Apps and dinner were excellent. We both had the pasta in cheese and had lobster added - so much pasta we couldn't finish or have dessert. Our wait staff was excellent as well. The restaurant was just about to go through a renovation - I hope so because it had green paint, mirrors on the wall, and older furniture.

There were 6 in our party and we all enjoyed our meals. The appetizers were superb, as were the salads. We ran Peter back and forth to the wine rack many times without complaint. We will be back next year!!

Service was poor, food was bland. Not up to the quality of Blossoms, which is in the same hotel complex..Would not suggest this place for Italian food.

Jim loved the linguine frut de Mar with the seafood. Said it was the best he's ever had. I had lasagna and it was very good.

This is a must-do for Gerry's Italian fix. This time we were seated outside in the entrance area but I prefer inside where there is more privacy at the tables. But it was air conditioned out there as well, so I was thankful as it was another day without wind in Aruba. Their "Lady in Red' frozen drink is the best strawverry colada anywhere and I look forward to it with each visit. Somehow our drinks didn't arrive until after the bread and salads were almost gone. Other than that, the service and food were fine. I'm sure we'll return on another trip.
I must explain my non-rating: Personally, I do not care for Italian food. Very difficult for me to evaluate and therefore decided on a Service-only rating. The bathrooms would have been given a '4' rating, but that's only because it is out of range of the restaurant and a little tricky to find. Otherwise, they were beautiful, clean and well-kept.
