For starters, we ordered the Piatto della Casa, followed by two classics: Spaghetti alla Puttanesca and Scaloppine al Limone. But shortly after ordering, the manager returned to the table and informed us that there were no antipasti available today – they had nothing prepared, partly due to a lack of staff. We weren 't offered an alternative starter – no pizza bread, no bruschetta, no snack as a substitute. It 's a shame, especially since we would have been happy to be flexible. The main courses arrived just a short time later – and again we were disappointed. The Scaloppine al Limone were smothered in a thick, mushy pre-made sauce that strongly resembled lemon hollandaise from a carton. I approached the chef directly and asked him if the dish was true to the original. His answer: Not in Italy, but it 's just right for here. A sentence that says a lot about the gastronomic understanding of this place. When you then have to listen to him afterward that this sauce is a butter emulsion, you feel like you 're not being taken seriously. Anyone who has ever eaten real Scaloppine al Limone knows that it 's a light, fresh lemon butter sauce—not a mushy, ready-made sauce. The spaghetti was unfortunately also disappointing: overcooked, poorly seasoned, and overall carelessly prepared. In conclusion: Anyone hoping for authentic Italian cuisine will be disappointed. It 's a shame—the potential is there, but the result seems half-hearted and disrespectful to Italian cuisine.
