Reviewed 23 February 2023 via mobile

We had dinner together on a Tuesday evening. Of course you need to reserve first to be sure to get a table. Nice and small location with „old style Italien“ inner decoration, liked it. Also the chef, people working there are top, friendly and professional....You order something and it’s just top. Bravo’s to the kitchen too. Even it’s in the higher price segment, if you love good food and „italianita“ visit that place. Maybe you see also Christian Mumenthaler (CEO Swiss Re) as we did.More

We were a group of 8 for a business dinner. We were nicely welcomed and got a nice service all along the evening. The ravioli I had for starter were really good but not the best, the seabass fillet was ok-ish, the polenta as a...side dish was dry like someone forgot it on the table for two days. Good selection of wines but poor selection of beers. Bottom line: nice place with reasonable Italian food but far overpriced. I would give a higher rating if it would be priced reasonably.More

We were treated very poorly by the manager or whoever the person who was incharge on the eve of 19 Sep 2022. If they want locals only on their restaurant they should have put a board or notice. We knew while entering that it’s an...expensive restaurant and we made a conscious decision by going in. We were even dressed appropriately. Yet they were very unwelcoming. Maybe their restaurant doesn’t want Indians and Canadians. Will definitely not recommend this one. You can always find a better place with better food and service for your money.More

Lunch time is always crowded, so reservation is recommendable. The food is solid and tasty. The interior is of old-world charm. Apart from lunch menus others on the menu card are rather pricey.

I have been going here on and off for years. Food is always great, staff are professional and friendly. Great for a casual business meal, team lunch or to catch up with friends. Quieter in the evening. Small outdoor section in summer. Just on the...edge of city so has a bit of a neighborhood feel.More

2 of us joined the group of friends of 6 who were having a dinner in this place. This person on foto came to us and asked us if 2 of us will be ordering something from the menu, we said we joined our friends...for a drink and then this person said that basically we are not welcome here as people come here to eat. Imagine that you come to a restaurant and hear that. This so embarrassing! I do not recommend this place and wish I never was there!More

....for the white truffles from Alba/Piemonte. Usual I don't order them before mid/end of November - but this time - we walked in and could smell it already! Therefore I had no chance against my synapsis who just told me - ORDER IT NOW! Well,...make the long story short - mixed salad and a big portion Tagliarini with white truffles - for sure with a nice red from the Piemonte - sometimes such simple things put a big smile in your face! The only thing what was disturbing was our neighbors next to our table - but this wasn't the fault of the Restaurant. A very good Restaurant with a very nice and humble owner - see you soon again!More

This is a great Italian restaurant, close to Bahnhof Enge and the lake. The food is excellent, the wines too, and the service is very professional. I'm sure we will return to this place very soon. Thanks.

If you're not a regular client, you seem to be not very welcomed. The proof: this restaurant got only 2 tripadvisor guest comments given during the last 6 months... Maybe because the classical italian cuisine served in this house has no real inspirations & imagination....I went to this restaurant a few times during the past years and each time my guests thought like me that the restaurant quality in service and food is not related to the prices which have to be considered as over the top. The proof: on the restaurant's homepage you don't get any indications about the prices asked for the dishes and you don't get any access online to their wine list at all... Very positive aspect is the nice terrace which can be enjoyed during the warm days.More

This is a solid Italian restaurant with a nice garden. Starters and main dishes are very good, the service could be a bit faster, but overall a good choice for lunch or dinner.

The meal was very good, however the attitude of the host was over the top. We made an early dinner reservation and arrived at a half empty garden, yet it was "not possible" to get any other table except one in the back corner, since...the other tables were reserved for the "regulars". During the course of the meal no one showed up, we had to ask for desert, at the end we had to get up to settle the bill since the two waitresses were too busy attending to arriving customers... Not coming back!More

We had the pleasure of a balm weekday evening here in the stunning garden of this little restaurant. We started off with an amazing "must-try" Prosecco of the house. What came after was a perfect mix of excellent food, professional and courteous service, and good...atmosphere. The price is steep, but in my opinion not steeper than elsewhere.More

I have been lucky enough to have to been for both lunch and dinner a few times since I have been living in Zurich. Every meal has been amazing and I am currently working my way through the menu. The lunch options are very good...and the menu is a very fair price (not expensive) for the quality. If you are only going to visit once then I would highly recommend the veal whether that be the cutlets which are as good if not better than 95% of other restaurants, even at a way higher price point or the veal ravioli is amazing and hard to see past. The restaurant is great for business, with friends or for a romantic evening. The wine selection is very very good and caters for all budgets. There is no shortage of new choices and will keep even the biggest wine buff happy. I look forward to my next visit!More
