They charge you if you get a tap water for your meal. Not the first time I've heard of this so let it slide. Then we turned off the lamp that was by my friend's face because it was too bright and hot. The waitress came by, reached over, and turned on the lamp without saying anything. We turned it... More

This is a nice quaint little bar. Food was just average, mostly penne on the menu. It was a friendly place to eat with mostly locals there when we were.

We were not able to taste the food as they do not serve in the evening... They let us know that only after ordering the drinks. We have however been charged for the beers... And what a shock! 10.50 for a draft beer (food is the same price :S).

We came for a week end in Geneva and looked for places to eat that we're reasonably priced in Geneva. This was one of the best referenced. We had dinner there today and it was really good. As stated in other posts, the penne (€10) are really well prepared. Really good value for money. The gentleman that served us was... More

Okay, so not the most amazing pasta you'll ever eat, but seriously not bad and at CHF11 for lunch, very pleasant staff (they are busy, but always friendly) and the cute cucina feel, it's a regular.

It's really small and cozy italian restaurants with big portion of real italian penne. It can be with sauce and goat cheese, olives, tomatoes and etc. The cost is about 10-12 fr per dish. It's no non-stop restaurant, so you have to come to eat before 2 pm and after 7 p.m for dinner

Been there twice, and enjoyed it both times. They serve simple pastas for lunch, and then more adventurous pastas for dinner. For dinner, I had a penne with duck and a melted foie gras sauce which was extremely rich. Friendly service, they speak English well.

This little gem tucked away in "Old Town" Geneva (close to the Cathedral) is superb. The meal is fantastic and the price is cheap for Geneva standards. The Fois Gras meals are to die for and then comes desert. The chef makes a fantastic meal from the tiniest kitchen in Geneva and well worth a night out talking with friends.... More

We went to see this restaurant but didn't eat there. On a sunny day they have only a few tables on terrace, where smoking is allowed. The interior is dark and not very inviting. Maybe you get great food there, but I wouldn't go there with family. Near to this restaurant there is a beautiful square full of cafeterias and... More
