A
Decameron
Ugly from the outside, but far prettier within, the Decameron is an intimate Italian-influenced restaurant where you can order from the varied menu with abandon. Veggie pizza, lasagna bolognese, steak au poivre and a divine calabaza soup: it’s all good. On top of that, there’s a decent wine selection and the kitchen is sympathetic to vegetarians.

Restaurante La Dominica
Despite a tendency to be a little overgenerous with the olive oil, La Dominica – with its wood-fired pizza oven and al dente pasta – could quite legitimately stake its claim as Havana’s finest Italian restaurant. Located in an elegantly restored dining room with alfresco seating on Calle O’Reilly, the menu offers Italy’s ‘usual suspects’ augmented by shrimp and lobster (CUC$10 to CUC$18). Professional house bands serenade diners with a slightly more eclectic set than the obligatory Buena Vista Social Club staples.

C
Trattoría Maraka’s
Don’t be put off by the cheap Formica tables and the pictorial map of Italy on the wall. Real olive oil, parmesan and mozzarella cheese, plus a wood oven, mean that the pizza in this Vedado Italian trattoria is among the city’s best. Also on offer are Greek salad, tortellini with red sauce, and spinach-stuffed cannelloni – mostly under CUC$10.

Prado & Neptuno
Dark lighting and tinted windows lure you into this trusty Italian restaurant on the lively intersection of Prado and Calle Neptuno. Stick to the pizza and pasta and choose from a good selection of Italian wines at the bar.
