Because the space is small, you absolutely have to make a reservation. I went on a Sunday afternoon, almost right when they opened, and I didn't have a reservation. They offered me a table outside. The table still had cigarette dust on it. The menu is short but representative of Italian cuisine. I think I ordered the wrong thing because I didn't find it spectacular. My Italian colleague advised that the Roman dishes are the best. If you need authentic Italian food in Groningen, go to Gustatio. If you go to Gustatio, make a reservation!

We had a very nice antipasto of typical Sardinian seafood, followed by a perfectly cooked risotto with canunau wine, pecorino and sausage and an extraordinary stewed lamb with artichokes. The dinner ended with a marvellous sorbet with fresh fruit. The selection of Sardinian wines is also outstanding. The waiter was wonderful and attentive. The whole experience is warmly recommended to anybody travelling to Groningen.
