    I LOVE this place! the service is always great, the food is great and the drinks are great! I think I go every month or so and always order the same pasta bowl again and again and again and never get tired of it. I think this chocolate mousse is one of the best I've ever had in very long time. They do have a really good mocktail in the menu so don't worry if alcohol isn't your thing.

    Excellent service and attention with indoor/outdoor seating. My past experience with other chain and not chain Italian restaurants is that menu options that draw at least my attention is limited. This on top of the use of Italian naming of dishes. The menu descriptions were helpful with several good choices. We were all satisfied (portions, taste, quality) with our selections and this place will definitely be one of our top Italian choices.

    The costoletta was delicious. Not as good as at Midas Café, but very good. I loved the carpaccio. Service was excellent.

    This was my first dine-in experience. I'm familiar with the food, so I was confident it wasn't going to disappoint. And it didn't. This time around I went with the Fettuccine a la Carbonara. I added chicken to it. It was excellent. The carpaccio appetizer was also good. The service was equally outstanding, from the hostess to the servers to the busser. Just all around polite and professional. Special shout-out to our server Yesi.

    Food came out at perfect temperature. 5-star service. The design of the inside was so cute and shows the Italian culture. I will definitely recommend anyone to come here if you are looking for authentic Italian food.

    This place was AMAZING!! From the service to the food literally perfect. Best Italian food I've had in my entire life ironically in Puerto Rico!! Definitely happy husband I stopped there after picking up our car around the corner from enterprise! We plan on coming back to this restaurant for sure every time we visit PR!! If you're comparing places, choose this one!!

The garlic bread was fine, not as good as the arancini. If you are hungry, get the chicken parm, my god it is the largest portion I have ever seen! I ate one of the 3 cutlets they served. Most times when a place gives a ton of food it is ok, well this was fabulous. Super thin, light breading that remained crispy and just the right amount of cheese and sauce. The pizza was good as well. For dessert we had a well portioned flowerless chocolate cake which was paired with some vanilla bean ice cream. Divine! We sat in the restaurant portion near the secret door to the speakeasy so take your pick on what vibe you prefer. The wait staff were super helpful and responsive. We bought the kitchen staff a round for fun. Great experience, I recommend swinging by if you are in the neighborhood.

The food was all delicious, and reasonably priced at huge portion sizes, particularly the chicken parm! The pasta was homemade and the sauces were so good.

We would totally come back on a future trip and will be recommending to others visiting the island.

The restaurant had some nice dinner lighting and tables that allowed cozy conversations. Service was excellent. Our server walked us through the specials and the menu to help us decide what to order. Husband went with carbonara and I chose the penne pasta. They were excellent choices as we shared our meals with each other. I loved the pink sauce on mine. It was a bit lighter than just red or white sauces. Portions were generous but not obscene in the amount of food. We shared the mixed green salad which was a great way to start the meal. The salad was huge! Splitting was a smart choice. They don't have glasses of wine on the menu but do have house options available. I had the cab and it was delicious. Husband wanted a nonalcoholic option which they didn't show in the menu. Instead, they asked if he wanted sweet or sour, and if there were any flavors he particularly enjoyed, and they created a unique mocktail for him. So fun. This was a great stop. We are so happy we found Ombra.

The "bartender" just kept walking by us, wish we could have waited 15 minutes with a drink. When we were finally set, our service was very dry. Not welcoming at all. He ran down the specials with no emotion or suggestions. Just another day at work. We got a glass of white wine, which was chilled and refreshing, but we had to ask for water since no one offered to fill our empty cups at the table. Decoration? Even though, we sat waiting for our food for about an hour.. we finished our glasses of wine. No one asked us for a refill. We started to ration our water to drink with our food. Sip by sip. We KNEW he wasn't coming back. We ordered two apps and two mains. So delicious!! The pasta was actually so good! The sauce was amazing and the wheel of cheese with the truffle, incredible! After our food was dropped off, NO ONE came by to make sure everything was ok, or if we needed anything else. No water, no wine, just pasta. We watched the other waiters bring waters and dessert to other guests, but we were just left forgotten in the middle. Everyone has a bad day. But we watched him take shots with other tables, clean up tables, walk past us a ton, until we finally made eye contact and he offered another drink. Ha! We just asked him for the check. By this point we were just disappointed. And he cleaned two more tables and finally brought us the check.. and now he got chatty. Ok. We were really wishing for a different experience. Specially for the style of restaurant they're portraying to be.

We ordered a bottle of Fiano (a wine we really enjoy and was on the menu). They didn't have it. We settled for Chardonnay. It was good. We asked for bread. They didn't have any!!! (What? An Italian restaurant with no bread?) not a great start. Having said all that, the rest for our food was amazing! The arancini and the eggplant were exquisite. I ordered the steak (yeah I know) but it was amazing. The sauce, the potatoes. Just delicious. Our guests had the lasagna and my husband ordered the pizza. They were very satisfied with their meals. The ambiance is quaint. Old Italian. Clean. I would train servers to know what's available and what's not. Prevent from ordering and being disappointed. In addition, if you don't have bread and make pizza, you have bread. You can make it out of pizza dough in a pinch for those who ask. Italian red sauce without bread... it's a big miss. If your equipment is broken, buy the bread. I think they should have given us the dessert based on the misses. Nonetheless, the entrees were very good.
