Nice restaurant with amazing pizza and the kebab wrap was also delicious. Only thing was the chocolate cake was very dry, but otherwise, I came earlier and had the carrot cake which was superb. It was probably just a fluke since everything else was good. It is a bit costly after tip an tax but great food.

I recently dined at this amazing restaurant, and I must say it was a delightful experience. The pizza was truly great, and the croquettes were absolutely fantastic. I can't emphasize enough how delicious the spinach dip was - it's a must-try, 100% recommended.This restaurant is definitely one of the standout spots in Juan Dolio. If you happen to be in the area, don't miss the chance to visit! The nighttime ambiance is simply beautiful, especially at the back of the restaurant, which is thoughtfully well-lit - perfect for taking memorable pictures.

EXCELLENT PLACE!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!Located at the entrance to the Metro Country Club in Juan Dolio.This was our go to spot for breakfast for sure. Very good menu, excellent omelettes, very good coffee. Definitely the best breakfast spot in the area, and also very good lunch & dinner menu. We went here for breakfast every morning (except Tuesday when they are closed - they should open every day lol). I tried different omelettes each day, and was always satisfied. Loved the croissants, nice and fresh & not greasy - plain and also with cheese, ham, ham & cheese, etc. We had dinner here as well and were not disappointed. I had the ceviche and a steak dinner, and we go a few pizza pies for the table. Everyone at table enjoyed the food immensely. They have a brick oven outside and make wonderful pizza. I was actually surprised being from NYC i know good pizza and this was top notch. When you are sitting inside you can see they have a lot of people taking pizza pies to go. Excellent thin crust and toppings, baked perfect in the brick oven. Nice atmosphere, with indoor air conditioned seating and nice seating outdoors too. Excellent food, good portions, reasonable prices, and awesome pizza make this a go to spot. The owners are very friendly and make sure your enjoying your meal. Very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this place for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Also the best pizza in the area, so don't forget to take a pizza pie home. They also have a nice location just outside the Marbella complex which serves coffee and croissants if your going to eat light. My only issue i wish they took American Express, but they do take other credit cards. Will be coming back again for sure!
