Espresso martini - Not much cream and you can taste the martini part of it with equal coffee and alcohol. 2. Capricciosa - Ham pizza which was good. Thin crust with a bit more red sauce than Olivia restaurant. Still a B- or 3.25 type pizza. NJ NY standard. Overall, average place to come for pizza or to try their other dishes.

The reservation was definitely needed as this place was packed despite how large it is. The ambiance feels elegant and moody. We enjoyed the vibe! Service was pretty slow throughout (in their defense, it was busy!) but friendly. The menu is fully in Italian which is fun but through us for a loop. I did the risotto for dinner and my husband did a pasta. He liked his pasta and my saffron risotto was OK. This was a conveniently located, decent option for Italian in Bergen.

Originally we were headed to the Italian restaurant across the street- but without a reservation on…read morea Thursday night, we ended up here, still set on Italian. Our local friend had not yet dined here himself and may have considered it more upscale than he was originally planning- but the actual meals were perfectly reasonable for a downtown Bergen restaurant with plenty of room to sit and a nice wine list. From the entrance, the restaurant is much larger than it appears, with a room in the back which could also be used for private parties. The setting is upscale and romantic with candles resting in wine bottles, but casual enough to bring work and school colleagues. The complimentary bread and pesto dip were almost too good, as we ordered three rounds of bread before our meal arrived. We decided to split a bottle of the basic Italian Chianti and it was perfectly acidic but rich to compliment our pasta orders. The pasta was all beautifully cooked to al dente with a textured bite. The ragu was rich but not too fatty. The fruits de mer had a perfectly flavorful seafood sauce that complimented the pasta. The ravioli looked wonderful- but I didn't get to try it. The portions were not too large or too small and left just enough room for tiramisu and tartufo. Great place to take a date or a business meeting with space and ambiance for a private meal and excellent service. I was surprised to be the first to review on Yelp- but it seems Trip Advisor has more reviews for this dining spot.

Tonight I watched a waitress roll her eyes and scoff at my elderly father after he simply asked a…read morequestion about the menu. To say the least, we were all shocked at the incredible rudeness our waitress displayed in that moment, especially after having read such great reviews about this restaurant's service. This all happened after my family had waited 15 minutes for a waiter to come to our table to even offer us water. While we hoped this moment would be an anomaly, it sadly was not. After my family ordered wine and appetizers, my father then asked the waitress whether she was ready to take our orders for the main course. He asked this to be polite because our waitress did not have a paper or pen to write down any of our orders. Upon hearing this question, the waitress curtly responded, "Why else would I be standing here?" And then rolled her eyes. My family's dining experience everywhere else in Norway has been great. Prior to this dinner, we all commented on how nice our experiences had been with the locals. We were all shocked to have our worst experience happen at one of the "nicest" restaurants. I strongly urge anyone reading this to think twice before going here. While you may receive great tasting food, the service will undoubtedly leave a bad taste in your mouth. Here are the details regarding the time my family visited and the waitress we had. Date of visit: Monday, June 12th, 2017 Waitress description: The night we dined, our waitress was also the hostess. She has brown wavy hair, green/blue eyes, and was wearing a gray sweater.

I will always come back to Don Pippo! I fell in love with this place three years ago, and though…read moresome of their staff appears to have less wine knowledge than the staff used to have, they are still nice and helpful. Don Pippo has a limited menu, both for food and drinks, but the quality is high. The food is based on cured meat and cheeses, perfect snack food! They also have sandwiches, if you are a bit hungrier. In addition they have a variety of good quality wine, at very fair prices. The building itself is not my favourite; with all the windows it is almost like a greenhouse, which is cold in the winter and hot in the summer. It is also quite small, and hence always crowded. On a Friday afternoon you have to be there before 4pm, to be sure to get a table. The chairs (mainly highchairs) are really uncomfortable in the long run, but Don Pippo is a great first stop on a bar-hopping afternoon.

Fawn's review is exactly what I came here to write. I walked in randomly, looking for a cheap kebab…read moresince I was still a little hungry after dinner. This place delivered, and my kebab was hot, tasty, and very satisfying. They asked me what toppings I wanted and if I could handle spicy food, and I just asked them to put everything on. They put on spicy chili peppers, and it was fantastic. I actually preferred my kebab here to most of the meals I had in Bergen, which were on the blander side. Plus, this is about half the price of a typical Bergen meal. It's nothing gourmet, and the meat is probably your standard frozen kebab meat, but boy did it hit the spot.
