i am quite happy with this restaurant, finally a good italian restaurant in abu dhabi well priced.
i have been at the restaurant few times, trying pastas and pizzas, and they are good. the menu is simple and easy to choose. the preparation is simple, with good balance to the ingredients, definitely is not an americanized cuisine although the concept is originally from us. i think the main reason is the well prepared staff, majority are italians including the chef that can add the right 'authentic' italian touch to the food and service.
ambience is refined but not intimidating, the view is probably the best as you can see sea and the city behind.
definitely recommended, i hope the quality and prices remain the same in the future
