We had one of the best pizzas here served with ice cold beer. The service was excellent, friendly, helpful and fairly quick service so we liked it so much we returned a few days later!

Stopped here for a takeout pizza based on some decent reviews and proximity to our rental unit. Mistake. The pizza had a dry cracker like crust and toppings were sparce. I had to send it back when it first came out because it was undercooked. That didn't help. When I asked where the toppings were, server said under the cheese! A few sprigs of basil and a few tomato slices. Poor.It was a "large" but at best would be considered medium size in most places. Priced at $17 way too high given the poor quality and size. Restaraunt was clean but empty of customers which should have tipped me off.Try someplace else.

Great menu choices, very welcoming. Great food options and the staff is very attentive and excellent. You may get seated next to kids, which is always a deterrent to fine dining. I don't understand why people bring kids to expensive restaurants and then they seat the kids right where they can't be avoided!

We started out intending to eat at the Sushi Restaurant next door, but it was closed. So we opted for pizza instead. This had to be the freshest, best tasting pizza I have ever eaten. The combination pizza was loaded with meats and fresh vegetables and we devoured the pizza with gusto! The service was very good and the prices were reasonable. Great little bar area and televisions to watch sports and there was no hurry to get us out and new customers in. This seems to be the attitude for most restaurants in the area. I love it! Being on vacation, we were rarely in a hurry to get to our next stop or to go home. Definitely a stop to make and enjoy, especially if you are with children that want some of the "regular food" they are use to.

Went yesterday to celebrate my birthday, asked for Veal with Risotto. The Risotto was very good, the Veal was as hard as leather....For me, it was not veal. I told them, and they changed it for another thing, and didn't charged for the Veal, they charged for what I asked 2nd time which was very good since I ate the risotto. The service was poor, I had to ask for our beverages, and there were 2 flies, I had to kill one, and told them, they did nothing. They said they had a tough day, but no excuse is good.

It really is an excellent experience. Where else are you going to get this kind of fine dining on this island? And as far as the food being authentic italian, yes it is. I really don't get any negativity here as - gross generalization coming here - but typically only americans from larger cities in the midwest or east coast & miami will access this type of traditional old world italian food. You get small apps as part of the meal, yes it is overpriced (all of it from wine to food) but it is experience dining and you won't go here every night for a meal. You will get a great italian dish, great service and a decent glass of wine. That 's the offering here folks. If you want something else or reasonably priced italian food, go outside of the Ritz and away from this place. PS the prices in Miami and NYC for same restaurant are higher. My mother was simply melting over the tiramisu. And because we have some measure of decency when it comes to calories consumed knowing that we snacked on the appetizer offerings, we each ordered a half dish of pasta and a veg to share. It was plenty. That was confirmed as I saw three enormously sized people rolling through the place ordering steak and pasta dishes. Not necessary unless you want to walk out with diabetes. A lot of flavor is what I asked for and its what I got! Thanks Il Mulino! I really appreciate having a fine dining restaurant in my hotel when I know that i can walk or cab outside and get the cuban or local flavor food I would expect and I enjoy trying. Sometimes you just want something familiar, and are willing to pay for it.

Stopped in for and first time and was greeted by a very friendly gentleman, he completely explained the menu and options for me, very helpful! I decided on the meat lasagna with the pink sauce, excellent! And made it a combo with garlic bread and beverage. Excellent value at $10. Dining room was very clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Pasta to Go.

Lovely, intimate restaurant at the E San Juan but NOT cheap!The fried calamari was light, crispy and delicious. I had fresh pasta (cooked to perfection) with mussels & clams; my friend had a beef and red wine risotto that was "over the top" delicious and my husband had the Chicken Marsala with a side of pasta that was absolutely scrumptious. Great wine list.......nice place.

We liked this place so much we went there twice during our short stay in Carolina. A great place for our family of young adults as they could get pizza while the parents ordered Italian dinners. The bowl of green olives was a hit with the olive lovers. Beans and rice wasnât our expected side dish with chicken Marsala but it was a tasty option. Leftover pizza made the teens happy then and later. A lot of the customers seemed to be locals known by the staff. Staff was super helpful and great to know.
