Testa Rossi Diegem — Restaurant in Machelen

The restaurant has a welcoming interior with stained glass, an old cash register and other nice touches. There is a very large selection of pasta and pizza dishes as well as a good number of choices of salad, second dishes and dessert. I saw a pizza go by - it looked nice and thin. We all ordered pasta. I liked that you could get bio/spelt (and even gluten free). My dish was very hot, and the pasta was not overcooked, which is very important. The serving size was good as was the flavor, though it was a bit too oily (and I typically love oil and season food with it often). Service could have been friendlier. When we finished, no one asked if we wanted coffee or dessert. We sat like this for a while, then just decided to leave as this was a work lunch. If you are not looking for something special/romantic atmosphere-wise, the food is good and worth returning for (though several dishes did not look authentic Italian at all - e.g., chicken...

We stayed very close to Diagem. Found this place for evening dinner. Had a terrible experience. We are vegetarians, and we saw the menu prior to going to the restaurant looking at their vegetarian section of the menu. It was so disappointing for a pizza,pasta, beer and water we paid €53 which was super expensive. It was not that kind of a restaurant which was exceptional with tatse and portion. Really over priced. PIzza Anna was gooey and watery. The speggheti was so horrible, absolutely no flavor in it. We found green peas Brinjal in the pasta, which I found disgusting. It was like South Inidan.Shavige bath with vegetables. In fact, that would be so delicious with other flavors. It was a big whole to our pocket. We come from Germany, and for better quality and portion, we hardly pay €35 to €40 including the drink. Very overly priced restaurant. Definitely not...

Went there for lunch. Traditional Italian restaurant. Lot of the stuffs are sourced from Italy directly. Quite a lot of seating space inside which is not recognizable from outside. I ordered the Testa Rossi tagliatelle with shrimps and cream tomato sauce. It was tasty. Shrimps cooked well and the sauce was decent. Quantity more than average and quite filling. Also ordered dry white wine which was good too. Service was fast, not much delays. Staffs spoke English as well. Staffs could be more courteous and warm. They certainly need to improve. Few parking spots outside for cars....
