"I was staying close and decided to have a nice pasta after a massive haxen' (pork knuckle) the previous night. Was slightly surprised seeing so few people inside, expecting at least a half full restaurant based on the reviews read. So the table was not...an issue as well I was not expecting a long waiting time which was good-I was starving. Very kind, supposedly the owner, Italian waiter brought the life saver welcome bites few pieces of home baked bread (I guess) some olive oil+salt'n'pepper. Played around with my olive dip, ordered my starter and main and was sipping on a glass of red wine (a casa) which was nothing special to be honest. My bruschetta arrived. A very simple dish but way to easy to screw up. This was NOT the case: very nice tosted bread, nice free cleaned tomatoes, some onions, nicely seasoned with some unfortunately average olive oil, but still OK. Might have been my hunger but I really enjojed and was having high hopes to my garnele (shrimp) pasta. Unfortunately it was slightly disappointing. Despite the perfectly cooked pasta, and nice portion of shrimps on top; the (something like a) tomato sauce was almost less than average, the rucolla in the sauce just did not make any sense, whole thing unseasoned with few hiding cherry tomatoes... The restaurant itself is a nice place but I'm not able or willing to judge the atmosphere based on the emptiness I experienced. I am sure the place has seen some true mediterranean nights. Mine surely wasn't one. Would not say I will never return but I am certain it will not be among my top choices anytime soon..."
