Fantastic!
Best meal my Wife and I had in Sayulita. We had a steak special, a beef ravioli, and a burrata and prosciutto appetizer. All were perfectly cooked and very tasty. I highly recommend this place

Worth it!
Nice little place with great food and great service. On the pricey side for Sayulita but the food & service were worth it.

Very nice place!
Excellent! First, it located on a dead-end side street toward the beach, so you can dine outside in the evening air in peace and quiet. Romantic lighting, nice soft music, good wine selection, and just outstanding dinner and dessert. Very impressed!

Highly recommended!
A lovely spot—upscale Italian, yet still casual and friendly. The octopus and salmon carpaccio and shrimp tagliatelle were so fresh and delicious, and really well presented. So impressed with the service and atmosphere. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a little more higher end, quiet, and cozy dining experience in Sayulita.

Amazing!
I had bookmarked this Italian restaurant due to the rave reviews and flirty food pics.

The crew was amazing. They reminded me of "once upon a time in Playa del Carmen." They had that freshness, innocence, and good vibes that come with people doing what they love.

Mi amor Gato was wondering who might be the genius behind this "love for good food?" Who might have this "zest for life!" Is he a surfer? Someone who inherited the great grandmother's cook book? shaved his head, and decided to travel around Latin America, like a culinary Che Guevara? Someone who fell in love with someone/something? All of these our fantasies, but could it be real? The atmosphere makes us believe yes.

Speaking about food:

Torre del 🐍, Negroamaro, Plugia🍷 Picked because the name "was cool." Deep, complex, with smokey taste. Tobacco finish.

Caprese Burrata: Burrata cheese, rounded 🍅, the perfect pesto, and some super extra olive 🫒 oil. This salad tasted like divine freshness!

🐱: Ravioli Di Manzano (tender, 🌿, hearty, comforting). This place is Au Pair of the best Italian well-established places in Victoria, Canada.

I had a perfect "Al Dente" pasta, with 🍆, pesto ( I would like to buy in a jar), Parmesan, and that olive oil that must be as pristine as the Ocean 🌊 there).

They should sell bread to go. It was house made, with a moist and crispy texture, spongy; almost impossible to resist. Dip it in those sauces, that 🫒 oil, or that insane pesto.

Tiramisu: fluffy as foam, moist as the breeze, as balanced as the pro surfers.

Love 💕

Exceeded our expectations!
All around amazing place to eat in Sayulita! Everything was absolutely delicious. We got a special of salmon and octopus carpaccio and the burrata and prosciutto to start. Then, we had the gnocchi and ravioli. The service, atmosphere, food and drinks were all amazing and at a great price. Would definitely recommend it as a nice dinner spot. Oh, and bread was delicious!

Innovative Italian
This little place, owned by two of the nicest Sicilians you can imagine, is really superb. A couple of their salads in the summer make a perfect meal, and their pasta dishes, while they look small on arrival, are very filling and so delicious. Not heavy but just right.

Wow!
If you're looking for a delicious meal and and inviting spot further away from the hustle and bustle of the Plaza, go to L'Ulivo. We both ordered delicious pastas -- which came with fluffy, tasty focaccia but the star was the filet of beef. It was cooked perfectly and was tender and flavorful. Also, save room for the tiramisu!
