Dario Donato
Owner of the brand Donato, Donato Delicatessen, Donato Ristorante
“Being from the South of Italy I am extremely proud of my heritage. You can really experience the true Italian, sorry Napolitan, flavours here. I also really love the garden we have, such a unique place with it’s canal. In summer the terrace is amazing, it feels like a short holiday combined with our dishes and wines. In winter you feel the cosiness of our interior. Everyone is so welcome and I think our guests can feel it. It’s really something you should try.”
