This is probably the best Italian restaurant in town. Skip the formal and stuffy seating inside and grab one of the outdoor tables under a canvas umbrella on the old brick streets. If the band were playing "O Sole Mio" instead of "Guantanamera," you might almost forget you're in Havana and think you were dining at a sidewalk trattoria in Rome.
The pastas are cooked al dente and served in big portions. My favorite is the penne alla pulcinella, which comes in a tomato cream sauce seasoned with anchovies and caviar.
For main dishes I'd recommend the saltimbocca alla Romana or the veal alla pizzaiola. Finish everything off with some cassata sicilliana and an espresso.
