A good restaurant offers guests fresh quality and good service every day. I loved Rissani three years ago. I was extremely disappointed yesterday. Anyone who knows the place knows that it is authentic and honest. It has the charm of a beauty that doesn't need make-up. But yesterday was Sunday, it was 12 o'clock and we ordered two Rissani plates. The stressed employee was extremely annoyed, but there were hardly any guests in the restaurant.

The spicy chilli sauce used to be 3x as spicy as in other places, but now seems toned down. The nice guys often give out free tea, but don't expect it. The food is not super creative, but it is very good and very cheap.
Note: the place is very simple and not super clean (especially late at night), but this doesn't...
