La Cucina Ristorante Italiano is a hidden gem and, in my opinion, the best Italian food on the island. It’s a very small restaurant, so reservations can be hard to get, but it’s absolutely worth the effort.

Everything on the menu is incredible, from the fresh salads and appetizers to the pastas and main dishes. Each plate is thoughtfully prepared, bursting with authentic flavor, and you can tell a lot of care goes into every detail.

2nd time coming here. And really enjoyed it. Make sure you make a reservation at least 1 month out as it is hard to get in.

Food and atmosphere is great. Free parking when we went.

Had the house salad and squid ink lobster risotto. Delicious!
Very cozy well appointed restaurant. The staff is good with timing on guests centered around the sole chef and his workload. The food is very flavorful, but the pasta is very salt forward so be prepared for that. You can bring your own wine, etc., which is a nice twist. Hard to get reservations, but overall a good dining experience.
