Boa opção de restaurante em Icaraí. Não há muita variedade de pratos, mas os pratos que tem, são bons. Bom atendimento. Há opção de self-service e à la carte. Em junho de 2019, o preço do quilo domingo era R$ 54,90 (o que acho caro dada a variedade de pratos que é reduzida).

Melhor caneloni que já comi e o molho é maravilhoso, vem gratinado, fervendo. Eu comia esse caneloni quando eu era criança, continua a mesma receita, qualidade inigualável. Amei a experiência. Parabéns DUT. Nota 10! Parada certa estando em Niterói. Atenção ao horario, fecha 18:00

Pesquisei comida italiana no Google maps e cheguei aqui. Preço muito bom então estava esperando um macarrão simples. Fiquei muito surpresa com o que veio. Extremamente gostoso, queijo de verdade, e pelo precinho... Não aguentei um inteiro, tive que levar mas quero voltar e experimentar os outros sabores. Uma delícia. Só me incomodou um pouco como os atendentes parecem que nunca estão no salão
