    I have mixed feelings about this place. The service is good but food is average, too heavy for genuine Italian cuisine. Tiramisu was very strange - a cup of sweet whipped cream with strawberry jam. Considering the price, there are better places around.

    Food was good, wine delicious. Staff not really able to pick up and serve the order. Ended up withe the choice wait another 10 min or take one of the meals we have ready. Room for improvement

    15 swiss francs for a beer and a water even for swiss prices it's insane. Not even with a wiew by the lake. Quite disappointing.

    Very good quality food and great and friendly service. It is like traveling to Italy in Lausanne. The terrasse is a great choice. There are lots of choices in the menu. A good place to go when looking for quality.

    We had a lovely meal on the terrace, which had been set up very nicely to ensure the proper separation between tables. The veal tonato was amazing! I highly recommend it!

    This place is absolutely great. Friendly as could be, beautiful and cozy. The food is fresh and delicious and the service is excellent. Not to mention, their olive oil is something from the heaven! Every guest there got attention from the owner as well. We came there a bit concerned after reading some reviews (from 2-3 years ago mostly). Guess what? No rude waitresses and no tiny portions. We highly recommend this restaurant.

    The restaurant is under new management since October, two young female graduates from the Ecole Hotelier de Lausanne in their first venture. An authentic Italian chef producing high quality dishes, beautifully presented and served to a very high standard. Excellent choice of wines and a wonderful tiramisu. Bravo! #womensupportingwomen

    A spontaneous dinner yesterday at Osteria Balsamico! The food and the service were great. A place to go when in Lausanne…

    Terrible experience, we were strongly denied anything on the menu under the pretense that staff would be overwhelmed but there were more staff that customers when we arrived. Expensive bland food served. Pretentious. Avoid for either more popular or more posh options nearby.

    Dreadful service, 1hr 45 minutes waiting for food, no explanation from the manager if there were issues in the kitchen. We never received our food while other guests were so we told them we were leaving. Very disappointing 😒

    Good quality and very friendly service! An excellent way to travel to Italian cuisine in Lausanne. Lots of choices from classics to more sophisticated.

    Very nice restaurant. We had a plaisant evening with my husband and will come as soon as possible. Really appreciate the homemade Pesto Pasta and the fish "Loup de mer" was really good. Thank you for the "Cesar Pintade Salad by the Chef". It's a true recommendation. Thank you for your professionalism and kindness. Big up to all the staff!
