Luz runs the place and her husband is the best cook in town. Get ready to have some great REAL ITALIAN food. Potato raviolis are to die for... More

Very cute little place and great food! They have something for just about everyone! More

Another great restaurant in Santa Teresa. I had the Pesto Gnocchi with shrimp and I was immersed in garlicky goodness. The ceviche was excellent and the mojitos were insanely good. If you want a place with romantic ambiance and a good wine list.....look no further. More
