Found this unassuming place while walking the West End. It's name belies what is here....authentic Italian food! And, the food is AMAZING. Georgia greeted us and introduced us to the wonderful menu items for the day. This place was so outstanding, we actually ate there twice during our stay. I had the squid ink, lobster/cheese stuffed (rather large) tortellini with shrimp while one of my mates had a seafood linguini - perfect al dente pasta with tantalizing clams, mussels, squid and shrimp in a creamy, garlicy sauce. Both served with a crispy outside, tender inside slice of bread (so no sauce would go to waste). The second visit, we tried the deep fried pizza (almost like a cracker with still some chew), simply dressed with a red sauce and basil. Simple, but delicious, as was the fried ravioli. Other's with me had the eggplant parm, canelloni and lasagna...all scrumptious. Other than the charm and attentiveness of Georgia, the other nice surprise was the price. It was very reasonably priced and less than I would've expected. Next time I'm in Roatan, I'll be sure to dine here again!

Amazing pasta! I'm gluten free so it was great having some fresh homemade pasta. Note that they can't guarantee cross contamination but for me I can tolerate it. My husband had the regular pasta and said it was amazing and felt like he was back in Italy.

Incredible homemade pastas and sauces. Always hard to decide what to eat, especially when there are like 10 specials per day too! The deserts are amazing as well! Always love our meals here!
