I was not disappointed, as the staff seemed helpful and the food was great. The service is what I remember the most in that they were very hospitable. Give them a try and enjoy!!! I would go back if I'm ever back in Zurich.

We were asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside and were quickly shown to a table. Since we had had a long day we weren't starving, and asked if we could split the buffalo and mozzarella cheese appetizer and the tagliatelle with black truffles main pasta dish. No problem. We started with a glass of prosecco and bread with olive oil, salt and pepper and two other dipping sauces. We didn't ask for anything and our every need was anticipated. Our starter came timely and was delicious. Our pasta was split into 2 portions and I couldn't eat all of my portion and gave the rest to my husband. The truffle sauce was perfect and not overbearing. Service was outstanding. Our water refilled frequently. The manager / maitre de greeted us as we left amd asked us how our food was and thanked us for coming in. Honestly, one of the best meals and service I've had in a long time.

Il Faro is one of a small chain of Italian restaurants in the Zurich area. (At least I think it's…read morea chain as there are about four restaurants I know of in the Zurich metropolitan area with the same name!) The one I like the best is in Herrliberg which is a tiny and hilly village south of Zurich - direct on the Zurichsee. In fact there is a ferry boat across the lake just a little bit south of here. Il Faro is designed for a bit of old-world charm. The menu is your basic standard Italian - to me not the most interesting cuisine in the world - but it does these all-too-familiar dishes well. I opted for a pizza called the Exotica this time as at least it was a little bit different having green bananas as one of the toppings. This rather large Exotica pizza was good enough although not exceptional. The salad was small but really good - tasty dressing and crisp salad ingredients. A Feldschlösschen Bier was a nice accompaniment. The service was exceptionally friendly and attentive! Anyway, if you find yourself travelling around the Zurichsee (Lake Zurich) by foot, car, or boat .... keep this place in Herrliberg in mind for a lunch or dinner stop. And in warm weather there is an attractive outdoor eating area overlooking the lake.

So we arrived in Konstanz one evening and had no idea which place to have dinner in. A quick Yelp…read moresearch revealed Don Alfredo as a 5 stars Italian restaurant, worth checking out. We arrived there around 8.30 pm on a Friday evening and found the place to be very cozy and intimate, located in some sort of underground woody room. However, they had no free seats. The nice waitress told us they might get some free seats in half an hour, so we might just come back then. We left, thinking it will be for sure that we'll come across something at least as nice and we won't need to come back. We didn't. After half an hour we were there again, waiting to be seated. However, there were still no free seats and we had to cluster at a two people table all four of us and wait for another seat to get free. The people there were having lots of fun and the atmosphere seemed to be purely italian (probably that's as good as it gets for an Italian restaurant in Germany). Some of the customers, as well as the staff, were Italian, which is always a very good sign. We ended up waiting for another 20 minutes around, but it was well worth. I had the best pizza in my life there (pizza Parma). My boyfriend had veal steak with risotto (very good) and my other friends had Spinach pizza and pasta with sea food. Portions were huge, so we took the left overs with us. Oh, the tomato soup I had as a starter was one of the best I ever had.. and it only costed 4 euros :) Same is valid for the Tiramisu as a desert.. simply delicious. Add a bottle of wine to this meal of four and the bill was 95 euros. Used with Swiss prices, we found this to be extremely cheap, as well as the quality / price ratio to be super high. It's worth to say that the staff was always a bit confused. I assume they didn't speak German so well and English much less.. they forgot to add some extra toppings to our pizzas and often got parts of the order messed up (2 Espressos instead of one, different kind of wine than what we asked for etc.). However, our food and wine were so delicious that it was no point complaining.. they made us very happy, hence a well deserved 5 stars from me for this one!
