This is a busy spot in Cortina and their menu looks like it has a nice array of offerings. To be safe, make a reservation ahead of time, as plenty of people were turned away once the dinner rush hit. Some had called in 30 minutes before arriving and were seated.

A decent meal, but in a miserable setting if you're unlucky enough to sit inside. I'm very unclear…read moreas to why this place is so popular, as there was a line of folks waiting for tables. We had a reservation so were seated promptly, but inside where it is about the temperature of an oven. The only way this was made semi-tolerable, was by immediately visiting their restroom where it is actually the temperature of the sun (or hell, your choice), and without any toilet paper or soap. By the time you return to the main dining room, it feels practically cool by comparison! The staff are clearly overtaxed, but they were friendly and trying their best to attend to everyone. I had the carbonara, which was fine. It's got an extensive menu and generous portions.

Quick to offer suggestions and clarify details of the menu for those who don't speak Italian. They had a nice wine, and cocktail list, but only a few beers to offer, surprisingly. The food menu had some great options, I opted for Pasta Carbonara, and was incredibly happy with the fresh pasta, and the rich flavors it was filled with. It maybe could have used just a touch more sauce, but otherwise, it was delicious. I really enjoyed the bread they brought out pre meal, they were small, soft puff like pastries, with just a hint of cheese...amazing! I believe my cousin says they are made by a bakery just up the street. I definitely recommend this spot, and hope to visit it again one day!

It's worth every bit. Absolutely delicious and well priced. The staff are very friendly and food arrived very quickly. I had steak and the wife had lamb chops. We also had hor derves (starters) she had Scallop soup and I had cod with polenta. Finished off with banana and what tasted like a cold (almost like ice cream) cheese cake and wife had pistachio gelato. We had a light red wine recommend by the manager (possibly owner). An absolutely amazing experience and highly recommended. I will never forget the experience at this restaurant. We both ate very well and drank a full bottle of wine for 120 euros. Not bad. The waitress did however throw half my steak out rather than pack it for take out as I requested. Just simple misunderstanding.
