    We were four people celebrating my birthday. My waiter was Maykel and he was fantastic. Everyone who works there has a great attitude, all willing to help the other, which is very unusual for a restaurant like this. It was a pleasant surprise and made my birthday super special. The food is meticulously done in such nice taste. Everything has a beautiful presentation. This is not the restaurant where you come starving because the portions are small but delicious. Every bite is an explosion of taste in your mouth. We ordered 12 different appetizers all amazing. The most impressive thing about this restaurant was the service and the energy inside. It’s just a great ambience. There was a fire dancer. The mood is fun. Thank you so much for making my birthday special.

    La Martola is a beautiful new Italian restaurant in the ever growing area of Buena Vista. It’s a large restaurant with lots of inside and outdoor dining. The food is great - lots of options for appetizers and main courses and a long list of pizzas. We had the burrata salad with soft creamy cheese sprinkled with pistachios, the tagliolini with lemon and the Classico (or margherita) pizza which was very tasty and delicious. There is a nice wine list with lots of wines by the glass. A great experience. We sat outside and the live music was a little loud - perhaps acoustic, rather than electronic music would be better in the space. But a delightful delicious meal that warrants a return visit.
