Alessandro's has a wonderful homely feel to it and dishes are almost rustic - which is great when you're away from home and in need of some good comfort food. On my last visit, I had the spaghetti with prawns and asparagus in a tomato and cream based sauce - all ingredients complemented each other well, although a little heavy for me. Service was impeccable especially as we were a rather large (8+) group. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of other guests present given it was a Wednesday night. All in all, Alessandro's is a great place for a quick and fillig Italian meal, with a buzz.

Just left the Isle of Man last week and am happy to report we were lucky enough to find this place…read more One of the best restaurants I've ever been to. Food was excellent, atmosphere was fun and overall vibe was fantastic. Neal kept an eye on everything and everyone and kept the tables turning while Mitch (who I'm pretty sure is an international man of mystery) schmoozed like no other. Highly recommend. Hopefully I'll return for the race in the future and they can roll out the red carpet for Lord Fancy Pants once again.

Probably the best pizza on the IOM, or anywhere for that matter…read more Pasta dishes were very tasty and obviously freshly made. Their pizza dough is made on-site as is the bread they use for the bruschettas. It was quite busy the night we were there as it was TT week. But all the staff tried to make it a memorable experience. Our server was new, she was quite young, but acted like a pro, never got flustered and always had a smiley face. Prices were average for the Island. I will definately return on the next trip.

Went twice the past week and it is now one of my 3 or 4 favorite restaurants on the island. The…read morefood is very authentic, it feels like you are in a small Italian restaurant in Tuscany or somewhere off the tourist track. Not particularly fancy but the food is brimming with flavor. My first trip was for lunch, when I had the eggplant parmagian (they have a fancier name). Great flavor, tender eggplant. Not a huge portion but the right amount for lunch. I also had to try one of the cakes, went with the pistachio, and it was a slight disappointment (actually not a very strong pistachio taste). Brought the family back for dinner two days later and was not disappointed. My starter was great, local scallops (queenies) in a cognac butter sauce. Very tasty. My main was ravioli njuda, which was a chorizo ravioli. Flavors were great, surprised how spicy it was but not a problem. Most of the other meals were very good (pizza and pasta in particular) but what really earns the five stars is the service. Incredibly friendly, really trying to please (and authentic). I love places where they care about what they are doing, are passionate and are just good people. This seems like one of those places.

Definitely make a reservation ahead of time. We didn't have one, so we were told by the hostess…read morethat we'd get the less desirable seats in the house. We were put in the very rear by the back door, which, when opened, occasionally required us to get up from our seats to let someone in. My pasta was great, the garlic soup was AMAZING (I've never heard of a creamy garlic soup with pesto drizzle before but now I pretty much wake up dreaming about it), and my boyfriend loved his personal pizza. The lattes we got for desert were too huge and watery. Had difficulty finishing them, and they weren't very good. The only thing that has room for improvement, though. The customer service was great (a well-spoken foreign exchange high school student was our waitress), and Leonardo himself initially took our order and stayed a while by our table, talking boisterously and cracking jokes. He was an amusing character. We wanted to come back once more, but time did not permit us to.

We had an enjoyable evening at La Mona Lisa when my 8yr old nephew received a Learning Hero award…read moreat school. We had a selection of pizzas, lasagnas, garlic bread style pizza and desserts. The pizza was some of the best we have had with a thin crispy crust, fresh toppings and plenty of flavor. They will also drizzle or soak it in garlic butter upon request. My nephew suggested we try it soaked in the garlic butter and he was right. It was delicious. The ambience is old style Italian and the service was top notch. Efficient and friendly describes it best. There is plenty of seating upstairs and down but I would still recommend reservations at this little gem as it was packed when we were there. Especially, if you are visiting during busier Times such as summer or TT week. One last note, the owner is a kind, friendly, happy man who does a precious 'magic' for the children at the end of their meal if they eat everything. All around a great experience.

It was good and reasonably priced, but the food was not life changing. Started with very good garlic bread, which was served like a pizza crust with an excellent almost spicy tomato based dipping sauce, strongly recommend. The antipasto was also a nice starter, with many olives (I don't olives but a friend said there texture was too tough), peppers, salami, ham and artichokes. I had chicken parmesan over spaghetti. The chicken was good and the sauce was relatively complex but the chicken was not flattened as I like in many good parms. The restaurant was also very hot, which made it a little less than perfect. Overall, a restaurant I would go back but not overly memorable.

Probably not somewhere that 'Gaga' got inspiration for one of her biggest hits from but ultimately…read morenot a bad place even if personally I feel they get by just because of its central location, it's close to the seaside and is massively popular amongst bikers in TT (which means they probably make enough money to see them through the rest of the year) Pizza, pasta, nothing crazily special on the drinks front - it serves a purpose even if I do think La Piazza 3 mins down the road is far superior and a much more pleasant setting. In TT when things are crazy it may be a good option due to their dining room being pretty huge.
