I came here for lunch break, expecting to pay a lot for a bite of high level food. Well that was a…read moresurprise. Amazing lunch for reasonable price! To be honest, I had my lunch at the bistrot. I guess the dinner at the 1st floor restaurant will cost much more. Also I found very professional staff and beautiful location. I'll come again for sure.

Amazing restaurant. At the ground floor you find the…read morebistrot/cafe, a good place for breakfast or even a lunch break. At the top floor you have the real deal, the fine dining restaurant. They are both extremely good, only the ground floor bistrot sometimes has portions that are way too poor and prices which start to get inexplicably steep (even pasta is well above the 12€ per dish). But the quality is definitely high for pretty much all of their bistrot dishes, except for one: the burger. The burger is the only thing that doesn't live up to expectation (and its price: almost 20€!!), it's not good enough for that price and the tomatoes in it look and taste really cheap. But anything else from the sandwiches to the desserts is really tasty, well seasoned and flavored. So go ahead and try it if you end up being around!

It's hard to play with creativity in a restaurant: often the results are just strange mixtures of…read moreingredients, and originality seems to be an objective itself instead of a way to create great dishes. At La Rima creativity is perfectly used: results are incredible fusions of perfumes and tastes. All the dishes we had, besides an excellent presentation, have been wonderful discoveries, like the risotto with blueberries, licorice and smoked eel, the pasta with Jerusalem artichokes and duck speck, the red mullets with tapenade and celeriac sauce, the monkfish with saffron sauce. Also the wine list has a lot of unknown and interesting proposals, like the excellent Faius we choose, a great blend of Fiano, Greco and Coda di Volpe grapes, balanced, persistent, with a rich mixture of tastes: mint, vanilla, oak, ... Beside this, the dining room is calm and relaxing: right distance between tables, good music, not too loud. Finally a great service, with complementary starters, right speed, friendly and expert staff, ready to provide all info and curiosities on wines and dishes. We will certainly come back!
