We truly enjoyed every single item that we ordered. The house made bread was so delicious. If you choose to get seated downstairs you will walk right past where they make their home made pasta which is so cool to see. It has a really cute and cozy ambiance. Overall this modern Italian establishment was amazing and if we have time we may just go back for more menu items

I had a good experience here, but I felt like it was sort of an everyday type of experience at…read morespecial occasion prices, which I guess is what I get for choosing a restaurant in the heart of the tourist district. It was the most expensive meal I had in Prague, and while the food was good, for these prices, I expect to either be really impressed by the food or to have particularly special service or ambiance. Because I didn't have a reservation, I was seated in the entry hallway; the ambiance may be a little nicer in the downstairs dining room. I had the spinach tagliatelle, tiramisu, and a lime iced tea. I thought the candied walnuts in the pasta were interesting and I really liked the dish. The tiramisu was good but not a standout, though I liked how the bitterness of the espresso came through. Lime iced tea was pretty sweet and more lime than tea, but it was nice even if it wasn't what I expected. If you don't care too much about prices, this is a good place, I just think there are comparatively good Italian restaurants at a better price if you go a little further from the major tourist areas.

Fantastic food and service! Generous portions…read more Our waiter was friendly and pleasant from the moment we stepped into the door. Our first experience since having been in Germany for a week where we didn't feel alienated for not being able to speak German beyond the basics. He immediately brought over English menus without us asking and was happy to speak in English with us. Beyond that, the food is delicious and it's the first place I've been to where I thought to myself "I want to go back!" I ordered a spritz, Caesar salad, and bolognese. The salad was large enough for me to share with 2 others. And I am currently eating my bolognese takeaway the day after. It's so good it inspired me to leave a positive review.

Super authentic." which may be true for the person who wrote that. But: nice food decently priced, I might go again when in the area. Would I drive a 30+ min detour just to dine here (mandatory in my ranking to get five stars)? Not very likely. Still recommended.

I happened to come across this restaurant and thought to return in the evening. I am so glad I did…read more One of the best Italian food I've had in a long time, not to mention the great, attentive, friendly service. I was greeted by a nice older gentleman who I think is the manager or the owner. He kindly ushered me in and greeted me with "Merry Christmas." The server made me feel special as I dined alone for a Christmas dinner. My instincts were to order the frutti di mari spaghetti which I sort of understand as being tomato sauce based and garlic with an assortment of seafood. The other part of it I just wasn't sure of even though the waiter tried to explain it to me kindly. I am so glad I ordered it as it was plain perfect. The pasta cooked perfectly to al dente, seasoned not too salty with plenty of good garlic sauce. It was not heavy--simple yet scrumptious! I couldn't be happier. I felt like I wanted to splurge so I asked for some dessert. The waiter recommended me his favorite. From what I could figure out, it was an ice cream ball with a layer of chocolate gelato and vanilla center covered in cocoa powder. When it came out, it was pretty much what I expected with some additional whipped cream and caramel sauce. Not too heavy, just sweet enough, and a great way to end the meal. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal. Oh, and to top it off, the price was extremely reasonable for the quality of food, service, and live music! I may have to stop by Dresden again just for this meal! Thank you, and please... Don't change a thing!

Both nights visiting this restaurant we met other couples who were on this trip with us. This is such a comfortable restaurant, very rustic with much character. Helene and I usually do the same types of meals in Italian restaurants. Pizza, pasta or put them together and get a Lasagna. We did pizza, pasta and salads here. Food is delicious. It fresh, and the ingridiants are very rich and tasty. This is one of the reasons I like the food overseas so much... it's always very fresh and cooked to order. The staff here was wonderful. We were seated quickly and they were very attentive to take our order and serve food. They were quick but did not rush us through dinner. Overall I can not reccomend this lovely retaurant enough.

Great concept for meals, and certainly a winning idea in my mind. The pizza and pasta are both very tasty, and the lower selection is cancelled by the option to add what you want. Due to the lack of waiters, the price seems very reasonable. Modern yuppie style atmosphere, with large glass windows, outside area and clean environment make it great for friends but certainly not a romantic spot. Definitely worth a visit if you're around, and haven't been in this one or the others around in Germany.
