Here is what we noticed: - When we arrived, it was a little hot, so we opted to sit indoors, not realizing that we would be sitting near the open windows by the outdoor smoking section so be aware. - The menu is quite expansive, with lots of homemade pastas and pizzas. There were a lot of other interesting dishes that we wish we could try, but we just didn't need more than a couple. - We ordered a bottle of white wine and the server brought out the wrong one (a red). Luckily, we noticed it before it was opened and he brought out something else since the one we ordered apparently wasn't available. It ended up being really good! - We ordered a dozen snails, and eventually he served us four of them, indicating that they were all out, but that we wouldn't be charged. That was too bad because they were delicious and we wish they had had more. - We ordered the Quattro Fromaggio Pizza and the Tortellini Scampi for both of us to share. They were both excellent! - Service was OK, but our server got less attentive as the place got more crowded. It took forever for us to get our check and pay at the end even though we asked a couple of times. Bottom line: La Gioconda hit the spot for our first night in Geneva. It's not cheap but we didn't expect otherwise.

After a short 10 minute walk we located the establishment up one floor from the street. We were greeted immediately an shown to a table. The restaurant was bright and cheery with many families enjoying their surroundings. I was expecting to wait as the restaurant was very busy but within minutes our server took our drink order. The menu for just the pizzas and Calzones were more choices than anyone should have reason to ask for not to mention the pasta and meat choices. Again, once we ordered the pizza the food appeared within 15-20 minutes. The pizzas are said o be a portion for 1 person but we found with an appetizer an one pizza 2 of us were more than satisfied.

Arriving at this inn slash butcher shop turned restaurant where they pack them in in proper European form. Is there a small spot? Table for four!! Ha! Today the special was TRUFFLE and its musky umami aroma fills the nose with great pleasure. No wonder the pigs can smell these even when they're underground! So awesome!! +++ I cannot help but order a plate of risotto covered in truffle (see the photo) BUT ITS ABOUT THE PIZZA!! This place (when it's not overflowing with truffle essence) is for PIZZA! * On your way to your seat, you'll no doubt pass by the old-school furnace (forno) where all the magic happens. * if you're lucky you can request a table right in front to watch these folks execute their art. * take your pick from chorizo (pepperoni), ham, mushroom, tomato and much more. FINISH WITH A CAFE GOURMAND But cold out today, so a wonderful cafe gourmand with assorted treats makes for an awesome finish. Creme brûlée was my fave.

A favorite that's hard to trade in for an alternative is their penne Siciliana -- gooey cheese...perfectly cooked pasta...tasty tomato sauce and a little kick of spice at the end to keep you honest. If I'm feeling healthy, I'll start with a melee or arugula salad. Portions are good-sized for all options so either plan to carbo-load or skip a few meals before going so you can *enjoy* it all. Some day I'll have to take the leap and try their other pastas (the bolognese / carbonara / lasagna all look amazing) and pizzas -- I have no idea what the tables next to me ordered but it's taking every ounce of willpower to keep from reaching over and asking to taste a slice!! This little spot by the train station will always have a warm spot in my heart and I will absolutely visit whenever I can. Hopefully it will continue to be here years from now so my niece & nephew can be part of the experience as well!

Pricey but good Italian restaurant right by the airport. We were staying very close and we decided…read moreto stay close for dinner and this place was right across the street. Very cool vibe here as they accommodated our large group. There was indoor and outdoor seating and it was a nice day so we chose to sit outside. Our waiter was very pleasant and attentive especially for a large group and the place being pretty busy. Kind of pricey but Geneva is in general and we were very close to the airport. Dessert was delicious as well, as I had the banana split. Definitely a repeat place when I back in the area.

Food prices I'm Geneva came as a shock to me when I realised that one normally spends one to CHF 40 on average on a meal. That's a bit too much.. But this review is about their food.. I've tried Pizza's, Salads and their entree (Breaded Chicken).. Salads and Pizza's are a winner.. The chicken not so great. It becomes difficult to eat the chicken when you are on the last filet as it becomes really cold by then and difficult to eat. They serves fries with this, and honestly, no one makes better fries than Americans, so I was a bit disappointed. Service was always top notch and food is served pretty quick.
