Superb dining and open until pretty late for Turin, which is a blessing for those tourists who needed to get in a little nap in the late afternoon after too much gelato and walking in the sun. We ordered a tartare, which was fantastically rich and smooth. Granted, I put in even more olive oil, salt and pepper of my own, but their olive oil was so delicious, I just had to. We also ordered one of their pizzas, and the server was very happy to help us modify the ingredients a bit to suit our taste. The house pour wines were very good, and paired very well with our food. We also had two desserts, one Benet, which is basically a chocolate flan, and the other a kind of chocolate lava cake, which we thought was a bit out of date, but none the less magically delicious- perhaps we shall just call it a contemporary classic. A funny thing happened to me while waiting for the bathroom- an elderly gentleman asked me where I was from and why I was visiting Turin, introducing himself as a tourist from Rome.

Read moreI really don’t understand how this place is rated over 4 stars… some staffs are nice but some typical servers are just so rude.

Also the lady who always sitting in the counter, she’s sometimes rude sometimes relatively kind. What kind of service mindset...
Read morei've been wanting to try this place! but unfortunately it was a bad choice to go on Christmas eve day, which is 24th lunch. even we booked 2 person at 13, even there were free places for two in the dining hall, but we were brought to the bar next to it. we almost sit in front of the coffee and croissants. it's a bar, so the facilities are for coffees, the glasses were dirty with water drop marks, which was beyond my expectations. but the food was good, even though i felt being in a gastronomical place to eat a quick sandwich.
i'm sorry to say, if you can't guarantee a good atmosphere for your customers, you could say the restaurant is fully booked. or you could tell me before that i could be ended up in a bar.
its lack of respect and...
