    What an awesome experience. Best food I've had in a lot of time. Nice owner from Salerno cooking à la nonna, very tasty authentic Napolitan food. I can totally recommend this place.

    Here you'll get some real pasta alla carbonara, the way they're made in Italy and even perfected. They make a pistachio version of the carbonara but even if they're interesting, don't think it's worth choosing if it's the first time you come. Pasta are made in-house and are cooked al dente. Heads-up : they're so fresh and so al dente that they stick to the teeth. Consider 30 chf for a pasta plate. It's enough to get you full.

    We went here based on good Google reviews but, after seeing it from the outside, we almost turned back. We wish we’d gone with our gut. This was by far the worst restaurant food we’ve had anywhere for a number of years. It started with a strange, un-seasoned amuse bouche. It continued with stodgy, poorly baked bread. Then the mains happened. A stodgy greasy burger with more of that truly awful bread and a paltry few chips on one side, and a plate of thoroughly disappointing pasta once again with no seasoning and masses of oil on the other side. It was bizarre food that would be disappointing from a greasy spoon café, so to pay 30CHF per main was pretty insulting. The only positive was the beer, which was really lovely. The service was alright too.

    If you're looking for a good pasta to eat in Lausanne, this is the place to go. Carbonara di pistacchio is something really special.

    Very good except for a few things that can be easily fixed. Have the melanzane dessert! - December 2017 In short: Calm and nice atmosphere, great service, very good food. Expensive, but that's normal in Switzerland. People, occasion: We were four friends (two couples), going out for our festive dinner a few days before Christmas. Price: We had four starters, four pastas, 3'5 desserts (one was a half-portion) and a very expensive bottle of wine, for a total of 430fr. When I say an expensive bottle I don't mean costly, costly would be OK. But 145fr for something you can buy on the street for around 50fr is an expensive markup even for Switzerland. Anyway, we were celebrating Christmas so we went for it. Food: the three different starters were all great (two of us had the same). Two of the main course pastas were great, one was nice but not fantastic (the same pasta that wasn't great was ordered by two of us). Same with the desserts: two were great (you have to try the melanzane cioccolato!) and one was just OK (passion fruit crème brulée, ordered by two of us). I think the issue is with the description, because the dessert we were served was a passion fruit cream but not at all like a crème brulée, so false expectations that had been generated by the dessert's name were not met. Service: good, the only thing keeping me from saying "very good" is that the waiter forced me to order a half dessert because it was "too rich". I would’ve appreciated the warning (I guess they've had people saying that dessert is "too much"), but took issue with him imposing the size of my dessert. Let me decide if I want death by chocolate, please. Verdict: we'll be back to try more pastas! The experience was all in all very good except for a few things that can be easily fixed.

  • 1/5 Antonio Núñez G. 4 years ago on Google
    Too much price for what they offer. Also the food was just good but nothing that needs be repeated. A pity

  • 5/5 Stephane R. 5 years ago on Google
    Very creative cuisine, simple and sophisticated at the same time. Try the Carbonara di Pistacchio.

  • 4/5 Alex G. 5 years ago on Google
    Great quality food and friendly staff, good for business lunches with an "express menu". Recommend their fresh pasta dishes.

  • 4/5 Ludovic S. 4 years ago on Google
    I had really good past. However the waiters where very slow. We waited 25min without any drink before someone came to take the order.

  • 3/5 Katharina L. 6 years ago on Google
    I usually have the pasta dish of the day at around 25chf, it comes with a soup or salad as a starter. You also get a bread basket with their homemade mascarpone anchovy spread, which is nice. Service can be a bit patchy at times and pasta a little undercooked (I am familiar with the concept of “al dente”). I would recommend it nonetheless, as some of their dishes are quite inventive and their menu changes on a weekly basis.

    Amazing lunch on the balcony. The Aubergine au Chocolat was unreal!

👍 I’ve visit this place a couple of times and I’ve enjoyed each one of it. I always choose the same burger though. 7/10. The employees could smile a bit more maybe? I know it’s a hard job but well… smiling is free! I’ll be back 😌
