"If you love Italian cuisine and you know as well how it’s really done, avoid this restaurant like hell. Food is not poisonous and if you’re hungry enough you may find nourishment to sustain yourself. But Italian cuisine is something else. My wife took spaghetti carbonara and asked before hand if they were done following the original recipe, i.e. without milk, cream or any diary, because she is intolerant to lactose. And the dish came. It wasn’t the creamy gorgeous spaghetti dish you would expect. It was rather on the side of a spaghetti omelette with carbonized stripes of meat, that was impossible to recognize as guanciale. Horrible. But she was hungry and she ate it even if it was a joke of a carbonara. And this wasn’t the only thing amiss. Half an hour later, the digestive trait gave is verdict: the dish contained in fact a lot of lactose: pre processed food? Industrial sauce? simple incompetence? Who knows. Pasta is the flag dish of this place. If this is it’s standard quality… there are certainly other options in the same price range, or even lower, because Spaghetti pomodoro is not cheap, for What it is."

The food was, as always, very good. The portion is a bit small and not enough vongole. The staff was also very friendly.

The place is nice and clean. Great pizza at 10 chf. They have a long list of pizza at that price. Service is ok and friendly.

The spaghetti with clams was not very tasty, it really lacked umami. 35 minutes to serve 27 francs bill POSITIVE note: they don't charge for tap water (rare given that in Switzerland they now serve filtered water for 5CHF)

I recently dined at this Italian restaurant specializing in pasta and pizza. The food was tasty and with generous portions of pasta, but the price is excessive considering that the pasta is not homemade but industrial. A quite satisfying culinary experience, but with a quality-price ratio to be reviewed. View menu

It's not the first time I've had lunch at this restaurant, I love their signature spaghetti with tomato sauce which is truly exceptional. The service is no different, they are very attentive and very kind! We had ordered coffee but changed our mind to take it out with some friends, they canceled it even though they had already prepared it.

We arrived in March 2024. We ate seafood spaghetti and pork pizza and drank 2 glasses of white wine. The pizza was good, but I really liked the seafood spaghetti. It should definitely be tried. The menu is not in English, we had difficulty in that regard. As for the prices, pizza is 22 francs, spaghetti is 33 francs, glass of wine is 7.5 francs.

"Me and my husband chose this restaurant to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. We came all the way from USA and I can tell you this place didn't disappoint us. Very nice location, close to the lake and easy to find. We started our 5 course chef's tasting menu from appetizers by chef. It was mix of cheeses in different variations deep fried, cream cheese, cheese truffle and refreshing gazpacho soup. 1.Our first tasting dish were amberjack ceviche with fresh mint, peach and lemon sauce. It was absolutely delightful. 2.Then we had poached egg in creamy pea puree and shaved with Belèer Knolle cheese. It was also one of my favorite dishes because it was so creamy and egg was a great addition to this dish. Also there were Bona crumbles sweet to balance the pea puree. 3. Next Paccheridi Gragnano halves with oriental veal ragout. unfortunately this pasta wasn't my favorite. It was too al dente and I am not used to such a thick uncooked pasta. We ask waiter and he confirmed that's the way it should be. Also too much peanuts overwhelmed the sauce and it felt you are eating sneakers. But I absolutely loved veal ragout sauce, it was rich with flavors and very nicely done. 4.Then our next dish was Red Mediterranean tuna with charcoal, teriyaki mayonnaise, cucumber and puffed rice with seaweed. It was the best cooked tuna that I ever tried. It was so tender and melting on my tongue. 5. Next was perfectly cooked Duck with cherries. I absolutely loved duck, it was cooked to perfection!!! 6. Pre dessert strawberry basil puree to refresh tasting buds and prepare for the dessert. 7. Vanilla cheesecake with apricot and carrot sorbet with prune compote. 8. And complementary truffle selection from Chef to congratulate us with our anniversary. Absolutely best anniversary meal. I also loved that service here was very open and nice. It was my first Michelin star experience and I didn't felt any snobbism, like in other restaurants in Milan for example. Nice presentation, and all dishes were properly described in English for us which is additional plus since my husband doesn't speak Italian. Absolutely worth the trip!"
