Would give a 3.5 if I could. Great location right on the main pedestrian walkway area, right across…read morethe street from the lake. That said, good was OK, not amazing, but not bad either. Because of its good location, it was very busy, and while that's good for business, it also meant noise was an issue, and the staff was on edge trying hard to keep up with the crush of customers and people trying to land a table. Most of that is totally understandable. Our service wasn't bad, but clearly the waitress was being pulled in so many different directions. Meal itself was OK. Hubs had the spaghetti suicé (sp?), I had the spaghetti with clams. Our friend had the spaghetti bolognese. I also tried out the limoncello spritz which was nice and refreshing. I want to give this place a higher rating, but rounded down just due to the overall experience. I'd come again, hoping for a more relaxed experience.

We had a fresh tagliatelle with a pork ragú, risotto with lemon and prawns (out of this world!!), and a grilled lake trout, which honestly was not my favorite. But the wines are reasonable and strong Italian choices, and the desert of tiramisu was worthy of seconds. A great choice if you have a car, or just hire a taxi. Better than any restaurant in town along the waterfront. They are not open on Monday.

There are no menus so bring a phone, drinks are reasonably priced and despite the heat outside, the upstairs was a pleasant place to enjoy our meal.

Tuna on a pizza might sound odd but our friend was pleasantly surprised and pleased he went outside his comfort zone.
