I have seen some other glowing reviews on Toscanini - I actually wrote one several years ago. This year when we returned, both in February and again in May we were shocked at the poor quality of the food, the diminished selection available on their “chalk board” menu and the inattention to detail of what used to be some of...

I live on the island, in Negril, all year around. I have never come across a restaurant as good as Toscanini anywhere else in Jamaica. My boyfriend and I went for our first anniversary dinner, and it couldn't have been more romantic. Only a five minute drive from the Ocho Rios strip, we arrived to the restaurant to discover the...

As a former home owner and now regular vacationer in Jamaica, Toscanini is truly a restaurant that lives up to its reputation one of the best in Jamaica. It's hard to do great Italian on any of the islands but..as a child of italian american parents and grandparents, Chef, you do an amazing job! On a personal note, looking forward... More

On the 12 March 2013 my husband and I visited Toscanini restaurant, Harmony Hall, Ocho Rios, Jamaica to a surprise birthday meal arranged by our son-in-law and our daughter. We were welcomed by Lella Ricci, a most friendly, informative, and lively host. She guided us through the menus and told us about how the food was sourced, how it was... More

This restaurant has received a lot of positive reviews and when you visit it's not hard to see why. The reception, service, food and setting were all excellent. The food is as good as you will find in top Italian restaurants in Europe. Despite what must be immense attention to deal, everything appears effortless (the sign of truly great service).... More

Plus when we arrived, we saw no other cars but no problem Man, the place was busy but the chef read the menu and took our orders! Food was varied with everything from lobster and fresh seafood to Italian classics and... More

My two teenage sons and I went to Toscanini for dinner, and we all thought it was a terrific evening. It was hard to choose what to eat, everything sounded delicious, and in the end we all thought we'd made the best choice. The dishes are beautifully presented, the portions are not mean and the food is delicious. The owner,... More

Went to Toscanini with Mom and the kids for dinner. I salivate just listening to the owner Lella explain the menu. She suggested the Bacon Pizza for the kids....they loved it! Mom had the Mahi Mahi and I, the lobster fettuccine - both were delicious. Amazing atmosphere, always great food!
