Buzo Osteria Italiana

This elegant café and bar is tucked away on a side street in uptown Port of Spain's Newtown neighborhood, yet every taxi driver knows where it is. Cristian Grini, an Italian chef/patron, always has a selection of classic Italian favorites on hand—the real pizza is perhaps the best on the island and surprisingly reasonable. Young professionals and local hipsters frequent the bar, which is known for its superb cocktails and late-night pastries. The service is outstanding because this restaurant is affiliated with the even more premium Prime Restaurant.

The essence of Italian cuisine is brought to Trinidad by Buzo Osteria Italiana. The food is matched by an extensive wine list, and they produce inventive, tasty dishes from scratch using only the finest ingredients. Buzo was created to express their passions and values: a love of authentic cooking and a respect for the arts. Here at Buzo, it's been a wonderful evening spent in a little Italian charmer. Buzo, a restaurant that seems to have been here for all of civilized history while being just 6 years old, is one of the most imprinted in the lives of its neighbors and customers.
