Frommer's Review

Cleaved into the outer sillar wall of the splendid Santa Catalina monastery, this chic but unassuming Italian eatery -- a new addition to the Arequipa dining scene -- is an excellent spot for lingering over an intimate dinner. It's considerably quieter than the hopping restaurant row just 1 block over on San Francisco. Spilling into three elegant, small, and white-washed dining rooms, it specializes in Italian favorites like risottos, lasagnas, ravioli, and osso buco. For cognoscenti, it features both long and short pastas. The menu was prepared by the hot chef of the moment in Peru, Gastón Acurio of Astrid & Gastón, La Mar, and others in Lima and up and down South America. You'll also find a good selection of wines, great desserts and fine, attentive service.
