Now this IS an Italian restaurant worth going to in Antigua! The food is imaginative and delicious with "restaurant" type dishes, but you can also have a great authentic pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven. The atmosphere is good - nice lighting and unintrusive music. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and what's more, it's run by authentic italians!!!

We stayed at Dickenson bay for 4 nights and ended up eating here Twice, the menu had some great choices but I would say if you decide on a pudding room permitting try the white chocholate cake with dark chocolate sauce It was to die for. Service was very good

On our last visits to Antigua, we have driven over a short, but very bumpy, road to eat at La Bussola.

She was really rude to me all three times I was dining there and we saw as well she... More

We absolutely loved this restaurant and were actually shocked by some of the reviews. We had the pleasure of meeting the owners, Omar and Christian and they were both very nice. Omar runs the kitchen, and is not only a very well trained chief, for his young age, but also very passionate about food, how it is prepared, and the... More

I have been at La Bussola twice. I am italian and I usually never go to Italian resarants abroad because most of the times they overcharge customers with the excuse of the "Italian food and cuisine". Because I'm Italian I can tell you that I can cook better at home. I had pizza, not too bad but I think it... More
