The Cornetto pizza is amazing! I highly recommend anything created with their freshly made mozzarella.

Octopus starter was very good, as was the pizza. My favorite was the ragu pasta.
Cat ReynoldsDecember 30, 2013
Lovely restaurant. Lovely staff. Long wait for food. Octopus starter was good. Burrata was nothing special way too cold. Pizza disappointing. The rabbit, peas with open Gnocchi was wonderful.

Great wine list. Good food and service.

Luca’s Bucatini cacio e pepe is so good it should be classified as a Schedule I drug.
Eileen MarieJune 24, 2013
Still a good place . . . but my overall experience was not as good as it has been in the past. I can't put my finger on it, just a subtle decline in food, service and experience.

Tagliatelle a la bolognesa is the best tagliatelle ever.

Don't miss the fresh pasta, though everything is very good.

The artichoke app is very tasty!
Carsten RoehrJanuary 18, 2015
How can you bake an artichoke in fatty cheese and bechamel sauce? Not italian and not good! Pasta was ok..
BabaJuly 16, 2010
The funghi and onion/cheese pizza is to die for!
Paula PintoJuly 7, 2011
The artichoke is really good!

Cornetta with roasted garlic is to die for.
J DruniAugust 18, 2018
Too expensive for what you get . Also, true Italian restaurants don’t charge for bread .
Kiera ReillyAugust 20, 2011
Pasta here is amazing!
Señora TorresOctober 11, 2012
Not great meal here. Stale breadsticks, too much cheese and frozen peas in carbonara :( came recommended by a person in town and all the reviews look good but something must have changed
Patrick AlexJanuary 7, 2017
Não deixe de comer a pizza afumicatta, com um bom vinho! Simplesmente sensacional. O tiramissu é outra maravilha. Vale a pena vir aqui.
Sandro FreireDecember 10, 2013
De entrada um pão italiano quentinho com azeite e ervas. Como prato principal Pumpkim Ravioli é sensacional acompanhado de um vinho tinto suave.
Alan FrankNovember 20, 2011

Marcia VieiraJanuary 29, 2015
