Me, my brother & my parents had a wonderful dinner here last Saturday! I was looking for one of my favourite dishes – Cacio e Pepe – and I found this restaurant. The atmosphere was great, staff very nice and the food even better! It is authentic Italian, both the people and the food. Also loved the decoration. Would definitely recommend this place! I for sure want to come back and try out all the other dishes!

Amazingggg!!
We’re big italian food lovers and this was 10/10!
Thanks to the amazing host (didn’t catch his name), but he was so lovely and welcoming!
We will 1000% be back for our monthly date night to try everything on the menu

The Margherita pizza is flavorful and has plenty of cheese. The Strozzapreti alla Carbonara is saucy and has a good amount of guanciale, which I love, and I didn’t find is as heavy as carbonara usually is. The Tiramisu is good. Great way to finish the meal!

We walked in here right at opening time on a whim, completely randomly. We did not have reservations but Cosimo happily accommodated us despite informing us that the restaurant was completely booked for the entire evening. He and his staff were extremely friendly, very helpful and made our experience absolutely wonderful. The food and wine were fantastic and authentically Italian. Next time we are in Rotterdam we will definitely make reservations and go back here

When I had my exchange in Rotterdam, this was my go to place for Italian food! The service and atmosphere is outstanding as they treat all of their customers as their friends. We were welcomed with their signature limoncello spritz as we waited for the food. All dishes felt authentic and tasted really good. We finished the meal off with their home made tiramisu which was also delicious.

I had the pleasure of dining at this Italian restaurant in Rotterdam today, and I must say, it’s my number one compared to other Italian spots! The food is authentic traditional Italian cuisine, bursting with flavor. The atmosphere is warm and family-oriented – the owner personally greets you at the door and ensures every guest feels taken care of.
The place was packed, which is always a good sign, and it’s clear that many people return regularly as they seemed to know the staff. The pasta dishes, appetizers, and even the little starter were all absolutely delicious. I’m truly impressed and can’t wait to come back!

I’ve visited this restaurant on 22th February 2025 with my friend. It’s a good restaurant but there are issues.
Positive aspects:
-The owner was very friendly and gave us enough time to finish our dessert and espresso while the next guests were waiting for our table. That was the reason why I gave extra tip.
-The self-made bread was very good.
-The Branzino Al-Sale tasted very good.
Neutral aspects:
-The ravioli la limone tasted flat. The was no taste explosion in the mouth at all. 24,70 Euro is a very tough price to swallow. We see the true value at max. 15 Euro.
-We were waiting a long time for the pre-course when were asked whether we wanted to have some bread for the meantime. We agreed to that but did not know that we were charged 7,50 Euro for that. With this knowledge we would have declined the offer and would have continued to wait for the pre-course.
-The presentation of the Branzino al-Sale was, I’m truly sorry, boring. There must be a better way to present the vegetables.
-The tables were standing very close to each other so there is no privacy if somebody is looking for that.
-the lo stuzzuchino del Cuoco was a bit flat, especially the melon.
Summary: for the price we paid, this was definitely too expensive and we probably won’t come back. We would give an overall four stars if the price would have been at around 120-130 Euro instead of 149,10 Euro. This we say without being a gastronome and we know that it is super tough to be one with the high inflation and overboarding regulation. On the other side we have to work really hard for our money and have to see which value we get for the money spent. If price is not a limitation, I advice people to come here, to make their own experience and to form their own opinion.

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was some of the best Italian I’ve ever had—authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried was incredible, from the appetizers to dessert. On top of that, the staff was friendly, attentive, and very professional. They made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Highly recommend for anyone craving top-notch Italian cuisine in a warm and inviting atmosphere!

Its a great place for food and atmosphere, but we ended up paying 100 euro per person, which is outrageaous for an italian restaurant. This was not entirely expected since we needed to pay for small aperitivo upfront and limoncello afterwards which are usually from the house. This already costed more than 20 euros.
