It was a mixed experience overall which could have still landed them a 4-star review, but the piece of trash in my beer glass sealed their 2-star fate.

When we arrived all of the outdoor seating was occupied so we decided to wait. Since my mother has difficulties with her knees, I decided to ask “whether it would be possible to get a table outside”. The male waiter who was serving indoors left it on me to spot a table and grab it. So we did that. There was no effort made to “provide service”, which was a bit of a bummer. The female waiter attending us later was very friendly and caring though, so that turned things around a little bit.

Then came the menu. At least two, maybe more, of the pizzas marked as vegetarian actually contained hard Italian cheese, which effectively renders them inedible for vegetarians. The selection itself wasn’t great. Ended up ordering one with portobello mushrooms with truffle oil, which turned out to be a massive err on my part. We ended up discarding half of the pizza, being left with the bad aftertaste. Though highly opinionated, we think that item shouldn’t have been on the menu at all. The pizza base itself was nice though. And that is the most unfortunate part because prior to the pizza we had a very tasty pizza bread as well as decent tomato soup which we thoroughly enjoyed. So the pizza afterwards marked the stark departure from all of the good part of the dining experience.

Based on all of the experience up to this point I would have still settled for a better review rating. But that is when I had my last sip of the beer, which exposed the literal “piece of trash” stuck to the inside of the glass’ wall.

They served me beer in a filthy glass and that is absolutely unacceptable under any circumstances.

Settling for 1 star would have been unfair to the friendly waitress and the delicious pizza bread.
