“ We spent a week in Jose Ignacio and tried every restaurant in town. This cozy-but-elegant Italian spot was by far the best in terms of gastronomy, setting and service. Excellent food - a bit pricey but it's to be expected in Jose Ignacio. Worth every penny. The only real Italian restaurant in all of Uruguay. The cannolis alone make it worthwhile! ”

- John Falcon -

“ Very nice place where your meal is prepared from scratch. All dishes were well prepared and flavorful. The scenery of the beach and lighthouse compliments the setting. Recommend! ”

- Luis Lluberas -

“ Ok, here’s one hell of a meal!! Some of the most lovingly and carefully prepared food, every ingredient is hand picked by chef Alessandro Tridenti to orchestrate marvelous combinations. You can even get a perfect pizza napoletana cooked in a 100% Italian wood oven. The owner and the crew will pamper you with lovely smiles and a homey atmosphere. Last thing to mention: you sit right in front of the Atlantic Ocean, right next to the firehouse. ”

- Paola Evelina -

“ Chef Allessandro Tridenti has created another great culinary delight in this understated and comfortable venue, right next to the lighthouse in Jose Ignacio. With restaurants and schools in Brazil, Spain and Uruguay, and having come from Venice, Chef Allessandro brings authentic Italian cuisine to the beach. The entire service team is dedicated to personal service and they obviously love what they do. Which is great, because I loved what they served! The menu is familiar but every dish is unique and different -- whether the bruschetta, special meats or fresh pastas. The wine list is varied and well priced, with a mixture of South American and European wines. Don't miss the tiramisu! ”

“ Great pasta dishes. My boyfriend and I had the carbonara and squid ink ravioli stuffed with corvina and herbs. Both were excellent. Yes it’s expensive but well worth it! ”
