"First of all, the dinner ambience gets ruined by very bright lighting: Before we even had the chance to look at the menu, we felt already somewhat uncomfortable with the spotlight in our faces. The waitress offered to dim the lights a bit, but nothing actually happened. \n\nAn easy improvement would be to reduce the lighting. The place is lit up like a theater stage. Turn down the lights and use those little candles on the tables!\n\nThe appetizers were outstanding, but the entree was mediocre. Especially for the steep price, you can expect some culinary extravagance. The portion size, however, was perfect: just enough to be full without feeling stuffed. Moreover, compared to the other so-called Italian restaurants in town, the food here is pretty close to genuine Italian food (similar to what you would get in Europe).\n\nUnfortunately, this place is not suited for vegans! There are hardly any options for vegetarians which is very disappointing in this day and age!"^^ . "2016-04-11T00:00:00"^^ . . "3"^^ . "1"^^ . . . "1"^^ . "1"^^ .
