We ate here as a break from local food. We had pasta which was not to the standard we are used to. One large party next to our table all ordered pizzas for themselves,which looked okay. They did ask for olive oil to go over them. The wine was below average quality, and I would not eat here again. More

Prices were ok for Kathmandu and food was just ok. Nothing special here. Rooftop is kind of nice but as with the rest of Kathmandu horns reign supreme. Crazy city. More

Upstairs in main street through Thamel. Food was good ( Italian) and the drink was affair price. Great place to watch the world go by and indulge in people watching. For me the drawback was the table was solid so I could not tuck my feet under. Uncomfortable with my knees! More

I visit this place each time I come to Kathmandu. They unfortunately dropped one item from their menu, but I find the pasta very tasty, and with a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian sauces. The chocolate dessert was strong and rich, too, as I like it. More

I ventured into Dolce Vita to have some rest from the curries, momos and assorted Nepali delicacies. The restaurant is centrally located in second floor on busy Tamel. Decoration is pleasant but you better like the loud music from surrounding bars. Food:The bruscheta was crispy, fresh tomato, olive oil, basil. Pretty good. Probably I made the mistake to order the... More

Overlooking the busy Thamel Chok, and right across from the 2nd Trek Nepal office near KTM Guesthouse, this restaurant is perfect for a fancy dinner out. You won't be disappointed with the quality! More

Very tasty pizza with thin crispy base and lovely beef lasagna. The red wine was also very good. And all this at Kathmandu prices! Would go again next time we're in Kathmandu. More

We were interested in sampling Nepalese food but after two weeks on the local diet (dal Bhat) were ready for some variety and very much enjoyed the pizzas here. Given the place is completely westernised but the food was good! More
