Did lunch here on a Wednesday.Service was quick and friendly.Ambience is attractive and casual.I ordered the Mamma mia pasta. It was quite delicious. The disappointment is there were no mushrooms, nor black olives (my backup to replace the mushrooms). Settled for corn in it and can only imagine how much better it would have been with the correct ingredients. Strange for an Italian restaurant to not have mushrooms and olives though.The tiramisu was authentic and excellent!My martini was one of the best melon martinis I have had.

My husband and I had lunch at this restaurant recently and was quite happy with the great service received! The staff was very attentive and the owner/manager visited our table and explained the menu items as well. The food was very tasty and well priced, we received good value for money! We will be back when they introduce their dinner service!

This place is amazing. Wonderful location with parking if you have a car and wonderful food. Very professional attentive waiters, best we have come across in Trinidad and Tobago and quick and efficient service. Beautiful interiors again best we have come across.Delicious food so much so we had 2 lunches at the pub bar downstairs. Quite reasonable priced too given the quality. If youâre lucky Jenny herself might wander over to say hi and sheâs an amazing hostess. Highly recommended.

I considered a few options within Port of Spain for a milestone birthday dinner and La Cantina came highly recommended. From my initial inquiry to my last email of gratitude, communication was superb! Joni answered all my questions with patience and grace, returned my calls quickly, invited me to do a site visit and provided the level of service that was amazing (and quite frankly that I may have grown accustomed to not receiving from other restaurant establishments). Each time my headcount changed, she sent a revised quote promptly; and as we discussed and agreed changes to the menu, she emailed me with updates each time. She was fantastic at making suggestions based on some of my guestsâ dietary requirements and the chef was happy to work with me on this and other special requests. I loved that there were no restrictions to bringing my own cake and without coercion to order one of their desserts instead. The private room was a lovely space. Closed to the main dining room, it was ideal for our group of 13 persons and a buffet setup. It would quite easily do for a group of 20 â 25 persons leaving enough space for mingling. The staff were amazing on the night. Joni made sure to be there for my dinner. Again, much appreciation for this, as so many restaurants have someone working behind the scenes dealing with clients but are notably absent for the actual event. Nero, the supervisor was attentive and helpful throughout. And Adayah was wonderful as our server, taking and filling drink orders with efficiency and aplomb. I highly recommend La Cantina Pizzeria. Just donât let their name fool you â they donât only sell pizzas. There are tons of other things too including all manner of appetisers, seafood & meat mains, salads, wraps, burgers & sandwiches, pastas, combo platters, desserts and even a kidsâ menu. Iâm looking forward to having lunch here soon and would definitely love to host another event here in the future!

My first dinner at Rizzoniâs - Italian food, convenient location, wonderful ambiance/ decor, delicious quality food..Service was good and relatively quick.Food was great! Our group ordered a variety -seafood risotto, pork and roasted veg and steaks medium-well done. And then desserts..The only complaint was it was certain dishes were a little cold by the time we got it vs the rest were hot. But we were all served at the same time and in a reasonable quick timing from order to plating. And the food was really delicious!!! So happy birthday to my cousin, so glad I could share a meal with the family for his birthday at such a great restaurant!

3. Angelo's

Reviewed By cinanina
I went with my family to this restaurant and had a very average dining experience. Found it to be too expensive for what we were served. I had the chicken with mushrooms and it was very simple, the kind of thing you would cook at home. My family had pasta with seafood but again they found it was nothing very special for the price. The fact that we are European and may have high expectations on what an italian restaurant may be, can affect my review, but it was really very far from the mediterranean tastes, fresh ingredients, and home made pasta which would be expected at such cost.

Food was excellent, I enjoyed Portobello with crab appetiser and portobello salad with extra mushrooms and a cappucino. Other guests had the grouper, shrimp risotto, beet salad and all were fabulous, Menu is wide ranging as there is even pizza available. Our table was in the draft of an air conditioner and was I very cold but our server even brought me a shawl, so I was comfortable!! Parking was also very easy as they have a parking lot on Warner Street very near and there is security on the road to guide you to the resturant.
