The menu features the freshest and finest local and imported products, with signature handcrafted dishes. Plates are based around traditional recipes found in the coastal towns of Naples, Taormina, Bari, Positano and Gaeta, and each is presented in a contemporary fashion.

    Very special place for a special night out. The mansion is gorgeous, with beautiful details everywhere. The pool room is amazing! Service was perfect and food was delicious. The appetizer of fried calamari, zucchini and shrimp was large and delicious. The scallop entree was wonderful. Perfect place for a celebration!

    We decided to have Valentine’s Day dinner here and it was the best decision ever. The service was amazing. The drinks left me absolutely speechless. I had 3 drinks and would’ve had more because they were absolutely delicious, but I didn’t want to make a fool out of myself 😂. The food was 100/10 and me and my partner couldn’t stop talking about it all night. Overall we spent around 400$ but we did order a lot of food. 3 appetizers, 2 sides, 1 entree, dessert and 3 cocktails.

    We were really surprised by this place - often these nice restaurants with nice sea view locations don’t care much about the quality of their food because they’ll get the restaurant filled regardless, but the food here was truly amazing. We’re from Copenhagen so used to an amazing food scene. We highly recommend this place!
