An old favourite, this Italian restaurant has a an interesting menu featuring freshly made pasta with pesto, cream, meat or seafood sauces. The fish is good: we loved the prawn and fish duo with ginger sauce. The restaurant decor follows a nautical theme, with intricately carved wooden vessels and old maps for decoration. Outside tables sit on a veranda.
