One of the finest destinations for authentic Italian cuisine in India. Every dish is crafted with exceptional attention to detail, delivering flavors that truly transport you to Italy. A visit here is an experience that will leave you thoroughly impressed. A special mention goes to Arshita Singhvi, the owner, whose passion, vision, and deep understanding of the industry are evident in every aspect of the restaurant. She is an incredible host and one of the brightest minds in the hospitality space. Highly recommended and an absolute must-try for anyone who appreciates great food and memorable dining experiences.

Extremely slow and pathetic service, first the pizza arrived but no plates, then pasta arrived but no cutlery, then asked for salt and pepper, kept waiting till the food got cold. For payment you have to the counter inside ( we were seated outside). Then the biller/ manager/ counter guy was least interested to hear the feedback.

Place is over hyped, doesn’t taste so good, very expensive for the taste. Ambience is fine.

Extremely disappointing experience. The management seems completely unprepared to handle the crowd, resulting in extremely poor service and long waiting times. Honestly, getting the food delivered to my place would probably have been faster than waiting for a single order at the restaurant. The tables meant for two are ridiculously small — they feel more suitable for kids than two adults trying to have a proper meal. The staff clearly needs much more training. The service was far from professional, and there was very little sense of coordination or customer handling. The food, which used to be good, has unfortunately gone well below average now. The overall experience simply does not justify the visit. Overall, poor management, unprofessional service, uncomfortable seating, long waiting times, and food that has declined considerably. Definitely not the experience I expected. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE

The food was substandard for a regular Donna meal and the service and staff was completely pathetic and horrible! Disinterested and just slacking. Not the best on a Friday night. Also all of us landed up with food poisoning. The ingredients on the pizza were just thrown and not even well baked or done.
