If your looking for a good Italian that is hidden away from the usual riyadh traffic, this is the place to eat. I've eaten here few times and not once was disappointed. Love their pizza and salad collection. Service is outstanding to be fair. Little pricey I felt but worth it

Very god service but the food was not as expected. The risotto is disappointing but the manager offered us some sweats to make it up. Regardless of this nice gesture, I won't go again; what I've paid is not worth the taste.
