“ We visited the restaurant in a group of 6, encouraged by the crowd at the entrance compared with other restaurants. We were not disappointed. My pick was risotto with mushrooms and truffle. The dish was super tasty and the portion was not large, just enough. The rest of the group also enjoyed their meals: pasta, seafood. We also took a pizza to share - to me the dough was a bit too thick. Drinks are reasonably priced (8 euro for Aperol) The staff was super nice and friendly. Food was served quickly despite the crowd. Overall we had a really nice experience and I enjoyed food and time there. ”
“ We loved the ham pizza and the risotto – both were delicious and well-prepared. However, we expected more from the veal cutlet; it was a bit too crispy and slightly tough to cut. Overall, our experience at the restaurant was pleasant. We sat outside, which was lovely, and the service was excellent. Do note there is a service cover charge of €3 per person. ”
“ The food is super delicious!! We had four dishes: the seafood pasta, ravioli with truffles, the Tagliata, and I had the Ossobuco with risotto Milanese - it was tender and very tasty! Everything was excellent!! The service was great, friendly and quick. We sat outside with a nice view of the canal. I definitely recommend it over the more touristy place downstream the canal. ”
“ A lovely spot with a great atmosphere! The wine selection is excellent, and the carbonara was delicious—creamy and flavorful without being too heavy. The only small downside is that service can be a bit slower when it's crowded, but it’s understandable and worth the wait. Definitely recommend for a cozy dinner or night out! ”
“ I had a nice meal at this restaurant. I ordered the lobster tagliolini, which was pretty impressive. For the price, it felt fair—half a lobster on the plate, cooked well with pasta in a tasty sauce that worked nicely together. The octopus was good too. It was tender and the sauce complemented it well. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The sliced beef, however, was average. Overall, the seafood here is the highlight. If you’re into lobster or octopus, these dishes are worth trying. ”
