Great place near the water, paid parking lot. Service is always excellent. Quality food. Our 3rd time here. We did have one issue with how our one of our dishes was prepared, but the Kithen fixed it immediately with. Love coming here and will be back. If you can make reservations do. There are stairs to get here. They have outdoor seating with heaters but still might need a jacket if the sun starts to set .

If you can reserve a table. If not, it's definitely worth the wait. We had to wait about 20min as a walk in. They have a good menu with well prepared Italian favorites featuring a lot of seafood dishes. I had the seafood pasta, which was tasty and well seasoned. The seafood was fresh. The Tiramisu was delicious and authentically prepared. The interior is elegant with a view of the sea.

This stunning Italian restaurant was clean, inviting, and customer service was nice and attentive. My husband ordered the Fettuccine e Crema, while I had the Fettuccine with chicken, both were perfectly prepared and full of flavor. We also shared a bowl of clam chowder and the La Barbabietola salad, which had roasted beets, oranges, arugula, a honey-orange dressing, and goat cheese. The salad was absolutely incredible, actually, everything we tried was delicious! If we find ourselves back in town, we’ll definitely return.

Being a low to no carb foodie I always judge these Italian joints by their steamed baby clams, fried calamari and meat options. Their steamed clams in white wine were to die for 9.5/10. Their calamari was tender, well seasoned, lightly battered and not oily at all 9/10. They did have a NY steak option which although I asked for medium rare it came out medium well. They did ask me how I wanted it at first. After it was brought out and I seen how it was prepared I got the feeling that’s they way they prepare it for everybody. Nevertheless the steak had excellent flavor was nice and juicy and the fat on the outside layer was well rendered. I also got a hint of dry aged flavors 8.7/10. Would definitely come back again.

Opinion Worth a Thought

Good ambiance with bright and airy decor. We went at night and didn't get to see the view of the bay. Might visit later during the day to see the view Food was hit a miss. Sauce of the clam appetizer seemed watery and diluted. Didn't get much taste out of it. Fried sand dabs and grilled salmon were good, though. My friend enjoyed her spicy seafood pasta with just the right amount of heat which doesn't overpower the pasta sauce Service was polite and attentive, but was a bit on the slow side. They were very busy, but looked to be understaffed

A Little Slice of Italy by the Wharf 🇮🇹✨ This spot has it all — a great location, authentic Italian dishes, and even a waiter who speaks Italian (which makes the pasta taste extra legit!). The wharf views are absolutely stunning, with a possible visit from an otter.. If you’re celebrating a birthday, get ready for a fun surprise — they’ll serenade you with “Happy Birthday” in Italian! 🎶🎂 And whatever you do… save room for the cannoli — that creamy filling is worth every bite. 🍰💫

The beet salad was too sour, too much vinegar. The pasta with seafood was too spicy. It's all personal to my and my family's taste. The service and atmosphere were wonderful!

We went there for Happy Hour in May 2024. We got there right when Happy Hour started, so we were able to get a small table by the window. It got crowded pretty quickly. The Happy Hour food was delicious ($6 per plate). We were happy with the food choices and portion sizes, and will consider going back.

Plenty of parking spaces but it’s a paid parking lot. This waterfront Italian restaurant has a lovely, chill, and relaxing vibe with beautiful views. Unfortunately, the service was very slow-the server hardly checked on us, and we had to chase them down just to order more drinks and food. Overall, it’s a chill spot to grab a few drinks and relax.

We went to this restaurant for dinner based on the recommendation from Portofino hotel’s concierge. I had asked for a casual but good Italian restaurant. It was a nice half a mile walk along the coast which was pleasant. Once arrived we were greeted by two nice Italian guys who told us that the inside was all reserved so we only could seat in the balcony. The outside seating is heated by overhead heaters but when the wind was blowing from the sea it got chilly. We told the server that we were celebrating my son’s birthday but at the end we didn’t get any dessert or a happy birthday song. I got an aperol spritz ($14) but definitely was not up to my standards. My wife got the ginger pear martini ($18) which although a bit small it was very tasty with a nice ginger kick. We also had a couple of beers for the boys. Ordered the calamari appetizer ($18) which was very nice and came with two dips. We were served three baskets of bread as we waited for our main course which was very nice. I ordered the ravioli bolognese and unfortunately was kinda disappointed as the I expected a hearty meat sauce but it wasn’t. My wife ordered cioppino which was an off menu special ($42). Although there was a nice amount of seafood, the sauce was very thick and tasted meh. My kids got the chicken and cream pasta which was the best item that we ordered. Nice taste with sundried tomatoes and capers in a creamy sauce. Unfortunately no one stopped by to offer extra Parmesan cheese. I rate the location 4.5, the service 4, but the food below my expectations.

NOT VERY GOOD "ITALIAN"FOOD....ATE A MEDIOCRE EXPENSIVE LUNCH HERE. THE VIEW IS AWESOME AND THE STAFF VERY NICE.....I ordered the sole and capellini red sauce pasta. It was around 2 pm and I was very hungry, ate every bite.... however -I asked if the sole fish was fish and I was assured it was. I highly doubt it was fresh fish and I would ask the owner to confirm and return my message. The fish was so hot that I could barely eat it- similar to microwave quality- it was hard and dry- not like typical sole- moist and soft. The pasta sauce was anything but not Italian and I doubt that the chef knows anything about Italian sauces. I told the waiter that the food was good not to embarrass my friend who was paying. He ate 1/2 and didn't like it. There were only 3 parties in the entire restaurant but we waited 20 minutes for the parmesan cheese. Well , it was an absolutely beautiful view and a huge full rainbow went across from one side of the bay to the other. My friend Jim had eaten there"100" times and said it was always good but not today's chef. Anyways, sorry to complain and my stomach felt fine afterwards. Maybe it's just a "different " style of Italian but not like anything I've ever eaten. Thanks, Michael

The food was not wonderful as pictured. All they have is linguine meals and the flavor is so so. The appetizer Arincini fried cheese balls were not good. The cheese was not even melted inside. The beet salad was so gross. They use a blan grated goat cheese lightly sprinkled on top. We asked for more and then I took the photo. The dressing was just lemon. It was so bad and tart. The Clam chowder was horrible. It does not taste like clam chowder. Do not order it here. Everything needed salt..Lots of it.
