For 4 of us we had a very good dinner with wine for 128€. Seafood spaghetti, eggplant parmagarna, sea bass and a steak with salads and had to have some chips as long day walking 3 bottles of wine and then topped of with sharing of some deserts. Lemon pie was the stand out. Service was lovely, chef came out to see all ok. Had a really enjoyable dinner. Thanks guys

They said sure, it's 10 euros for both of you, and you can eat at our snack buffet. We sat down, but we have two kids. We ordered them two peach drinks in a can. They charged us 43 euros, 10 each plus a 3 euro coperto (in spite of the fact that they made us sit at the table without any tablecloth or utensils because, they said, these others were reserved for dinner service). They greet you and serve you with one waitress, then they send the really nice guy with the bill. They charged the kids as if they drank alcoholic drinks, instead of the 50 cent drinks they got. Owners have gotten greedy with the tourists, and it was no wonder the place was empty. Again. over $50 USD when you can go to the place next to it and get drinks for 5 euros. The guy in the other restaurant next to it was pouring free champagne for everyone who wanted it. Don't waste your hard-earned American dollars at Ca du Sciensa.

We were delighted with the food, service and lively town square ambiance. The wine was local to the region as were the dishes served. Best meal experience on our Italy trip due to the delicious food and wine and the pleasant service. Highly recommend.
