I’ve been here a few times now and whilst the surroundings are great and the place is really busy, it just is not consistent enough. Firstly they appear to be celebrating their popularity just a little too much, they seem to delight in turning people away because they are busy. Trouble is, I’ve seen them do this to one couple and then accomodate another just a few minutes later. How hard is it to say “nothing free now, wait here and we will accomodate you when we can”? They seem to have the same consistency with phone reservations. A no one minute and a yes a few hours later. The food? Ah yes. Again, a great pizza last week, this week three sloppy and slightly burned (bad) ultra thin (good) pizzas. The delivered pizzas were not quite what we ordered (and we are Italian, so no trouble with the language) but we just could not face sending them back. You just can’t be certain you are going to have a great meal. All in all, they need to up their game. On a good day this is a five star place, on a bad day you just wish you had gone somewhere else. Judge for yourself, if it’s still busy in six months you will know they hit the sweet spot.

I suggest to book the table. There's a parking. Easy to find as it's on the main road between Modena and Maranello.

My friend tried both the chocolate croissant and the regular croissant and thought they were great. I ordered the apple cake; it was moist and dense with a subtle apple flavor—delicious! Another friend ordered a sandwich and said it was good too. The fries were also nice; the outer layer was crispy and dry. Highly recommended!

Everything was excellent and enough for two. Nice place and friendly staff. Perhaps the background music was a bit too loud...
