A friend told me it was the best Italian restaurant in BA so I decided to go there with my husband for a romantic dinner. When we arrived (8:30) there were many tables available. The restaurant has too much light. There were about 3 huge table beside us with large groups of families and children. It was really noisy. I... more

We (a party of three) shared two types of risotto -- black (squid) seafood risotto and one with saffron rice. Both were plentiful and very well executed. My dining companions also had a meat dish and were happy. Service was great -- friendly but not obtrusive. We had good wine (cannot recall the name). For dessert, I recommend limonata --... more

The price for 2 people is more in the range of $50USD and more if wine is added. The food is great and the portions are ample. The waitstaff is very attentive and friendly. They patiently helped as we tried to use our limited spanish language skills. Piegari provides a nice night out. more
