Okay I’m going to write the most honest review i can write about this place, because the google reviews are clearly rigged. More than 20.000 reviews and 4.9 average is simply not possible. On tripadvisor it has a 4.2 rating and i think this is more realistic. So here’s my review: To start, we had a reservation but had to wait in a long queue outside. Apparently this is normal because the restaurant seats about 300 people. When we walked in the atmosphere was great. Such cozy decor and lively setting, the aesthetic was beautiful. Once you sit at the table you have to figure it out for yourself because there’s a qr code with a menu where you also have to pay later on. There was only one waiter for about 50 people so the service was very slow. There are a lot of food runners but they can’t help you with anything they just refer to the waiter. The drinks were nice and the food was also good and fast. However, the pasta was very very al dente. As in - almost uncooked. So it was really not good and unfortunately we had to send it back. This took 15 minutes because getting the attention from the waiter was almost impossible. Eventually we got a new pasta which was slightly better but still not fantastic. After the food we had a nice tiramisu and then we wanted to pay. This was also a very tricky online process with the qr code which i also didn’t like. After that we just walked out which i think you could have just as well done without paying because it was very impersonal. Overall i liked the restaurant but would realistically rate it a 3.9. If you’re enamored by nice styling and a lively atmosphere then it’s worth it, but the service and food are average at best.
