Bolivar Department, Colombia Food Guide: 10 Italian food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Cartagena
Reviews on Italian food in Cartagena, Bolivar Department, Colombia. Cartagena, a gorgeous fishing village on Colombia's Caribbean coast, has excellent beaches, a historic old town (that's entirely walkable) and beautiful colonial architecture. It's also one of the safest places in the country, so it's no wonder it's a popular port of call for cruise ships. Need a break from exploring the cobblestone streets? Stop at an outdoor cafe for excellent pastries and people-watching.

Really really good! Small Italian place in the Old City...a little hard to find but worth the journey.We had Cesar Salad with chicken. Pizza with meat. Lasagna with meat. Spaghetti Carbonara. 1 soda and 2 bottle waters. Good service. A/c. Free breadsticks and garlic butter when you sit down. Our bill was around $60 USD. Portions are big too so come hungry:-)) If craving Italian you will leave here happy!!!

We went to Andante Allegro Vivace on the recommendation of a friend from Cartagena.It is located in the center and convenient. The owner/chef lived in Italy for 15 years and speaks fluent and accent-less Italian (my partner is Italian). The food reflects his time in Italy, as well the local ingredients. We shared an octopus carpaccio and then a seafood platter -- all with fresh local seafood.We were very happy with the experience and would happily return!

We always read reviews prior to going into restaurants we have not patronized. I focus on the Terrible ratings, and have learned to weed out frustracions. HOWEVER, tonight was very disappointing. The outside of the restaurante was set up ok. Due to the heat we decided to go inside. First impression, disappointing. The tables are plastic. but what makes them bad looking is that they are painted with a flat paint. So the tables have dirt smears, even if you clean them the smears do not disappear off Flat Paint. We sat down and about 5 minutes passed, and a waiter came. gave us the menu a disappeared never to return, so we left. The ambiance is less than desireable. Maybe some like it because of the laud music. Can not rate the food because never got to it. BUT we are glad. Lack of service, place was almost empty, so no excuse. Bottomline, we do not recommend based on our experience that particular day and the ambiance is less than desireable.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating for a gringo thatâs Spanish is very poor. I ordered a recommended house speciality according to the menu. âseafood grillâ, I added the lobster for an additional cost. The lobster was not fresh, mushy and no flavor, the octopus was tough, calamari was okay and the fish fillet nice, but overall disappointing. Dear customer, We are deeply sorry that your time with us wasn't up your expectations. We've been knonwn for the quality of our seafood and we take it very serious when it comes to our customer's expereience at our restaurant, this is why we guarantee that we will proceed immediately in taking actions in this matter.once again, receive our most sincere apologies. We would love to have the oportunity to ammend and enhance your experience at Da Pietro Restaurante. Kind regards, Sarah O'Neill

Small restaurant but decorated with taste and Italian chef prepares the meal that is tailored to your palate.

Cozy restaurant that is a little tight on space. However, the excellent pasta made up for the space constraints. My family enjoyed the delicious fettuccini carbonara and ravioli. I would highly recommend a visit if you are interested in authentic Italian pasta.
