It's a couple of years since our last visit and we were not disappointed. A loud and enthusiastic welcome (it helps if you have Italian connections). Always a good sign to find Italians eating in an Italian restaurant and they didn't let us down. An excellent evening. We will be back Grazie

Visited the restaurant on many occasions. Usually go at lunchtime when the atmosphere is laid back and you are made most welcome very similar to eating in a small town Italian family run restaurant. Their antipasto is the best my wife and I have had. Their pasta dishes are superb simple dishes but really well prepared and served.

Having had fish for dinner for several nights in a row, we were ready for some pasta, and so made a reservation at Il Tiempo. After a warm and friendly greeting, we were seated at the first table on the right next to the railing (not far from the bar) overlooking the Caribbean sea. We listened to the sound of... More

We stayed in a house very near this bar/restaurant and went most evenings for drinks at sunset. Always a warm and friendly welcome from the lovely Adrian. Great cocktails and free nibbles. A perfect way to end the day and start the evening.

Visited several times at lunch time for beer but decided to go tonight, the last night of our holiday. We were greeted like long lost freinds and were seated at a table right next to the beach. Adrian the bar manager treated us like long lost freinds, a great guy. The food was superb, Alex the pasta chef produced a... More

Everytime i go in Barbados i cannot miss my visit to Il Tempio, and i was very surprised to read reviews that are so far from the truth . The lasagna is amazing, presented in a long plate in 3 pieces... to die for. The location is just on the beach, and when you are there on the sunset, you... More

The first impression here is that its such a great location. Its truly in a wonderful position, but our experience was the service was very poor. We dined there on what was a quiet evening--we were one of two tables. So we were very confused why the service should be so bad. The problem seemed to be that our server... More

I had dinner there and the lasagna was terrible. It was like eating mush. I thought this would be a good place for Chef Ramsey to do an episode of Kitchen Nightmares. The location and view is very nice but the kitchen needs a new chef.

We ate here on the first night of our holiday staying in Fitts Village. The setting is amazing - right on the beach. The restaurant was fairly empty so were able to get a table by the sea. The service was good and the food excellent - we all had Red Snapper but I intially thought it was a bit... More
