Great Italian spot in Barcelona! They’re definitely known for their pastas, so I highly recommend trying them. We had the ragù, and the scallops were outstanding — tender and buttery. For dessert, we enjoyed a Basque cheesecake with a unique twist, featuring Parmesan. Some dishes are seasonal, so the menu changes regularly. The service was good, nothing extraordinary, but it met our expectations. The atmosphere is quiet and romantic, perfect for a relaxed meal. The only downside is that it’s a bit far from the city center, but the walk there is pleasant.

El local es ben petit pero te una terrassa molt agradable. S'agrairia una mica més de simpatía per part del personal. Menjar espectacular, original I molt ben peesentat. Preus bastant pujats.

Un italiano diferente en su ambientación. Me gustó que estuvieran pendientes, nos hicieran sugerencias y nos preguntasen a cada paso qué nos parecía la comida. El surtido de pescado veneciano, los spaghetti a la tinta de sepia, el cabrito y el pulpo, tremendos.
