Friendly and patient staff combined with amazing food made for a great evening out. As an additional welcome surprise they even had a selection of Italian craft beer that was treated with the same respect as wine!

Genuine place, where you can go and pick up the wine you want by yourself. Very friendly staff and wonderful food! I advise to try the "cinghiale alla cacciatore". Service is fast. Better to book, especially during the week-end and if you think to arrive late.

Great Italian experience in the underground tonels of the old city. Perfect choice if you want to try the Italian way with food and wine.

Hit it ! This place was particularly amazing. To sit in a cellar and enjoy so many delicious foods was special. Try and get a wide variety of options so you don't miss out on anything. Make reservations if you can because there is not alot of space.

I was having a hard time finding this place because I was trying to find a building but couldn't - because it's underground! This restaurant has a very unique feel. Because it's underground so it feels like a bomb shelter or a church hiding from persecution but yet the place is very warm and comfortable. I wasn't very hungry so I only got their pasta - tortellini I think. It was HUGE. The ragu gave the pasta its taste because the pasta itself was really bland. They have a good spread of bread though. I paid €10 for the pasta, €2 for the water & €2 cover charge. I'd say the prices are a bit high because I came from Ravenna & Florence & they served great pasta at only about €6.50 to €8 and they were better O must say. But yes, come here for the interior design! Their underground wine "cellar" is really cool.
