"Very kind staff, although it took a relatively long time until we were served. But we had a beautiful evening nevertheless! I ordered a "Pizza Diavolo" which tasted GREAT and was sufficiently spicy"

"Ein kleiner aber feiner Italiener im Herzen von Hitdorf. Das Essen ist immer hervorragend und der Service sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Geheimtipp hier ist Bruschetta - anders als üblich - aber ganz großes Kino! Es gibt auch eine wechselnde Wochkarte mit Gerichten der Saison entsprechend. Also ich geh da sehr gerne hin"

"Wir waren zum ersten Mal hier, aber bestimmt nicht zum letzten Mal. Das Essen war phantastisch. Der Service war hervorragend. Auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen. Kleines Manko war die Lautstärke der Unterhaltungen, aber es war Samstag Abend und komplett ausgebucht. Freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Besuch"
