I came here for the first time two years ago and left with a good impression so I decided to come…read moreback and had a high expectation. I arrived at the restaurant at 18.10hs not realizing that it only opened at 18.30hs. I met the hostess downstairs (who was very nice at this stage) and she confirmed that the place would open in 20 minutes. I came back at 18.30hs on the clock and found other patrons already inside?... I was greeted by the same hostess I met earlier and although there were several available tables I was shown a table right next to a couple... I'm not sure about personal space here but I certainly didn't feel comfortable sitting next to them on a near empty restaurant and asked to sit somewhere else. This is when the hostess attitude changed. She wasn't rude but it was clear that she disapproved of my request, shown by her body gesture. Anyway, I won't write much about their service because it's definitely lacking. Not courteous, not attentive and definitely not kind. Good thing the pizza was ready in a few minutes! The pizza itself was a disappointment this time around. I'm not sure if the oven has changed but the crust wasn't crunchy as you'd expect on pizza prepared on a wood fire oven. The calabrese was chewy and impossible to cut with the knife. On top of that, the pizza is small and not enough for those with big appetite! I asked for an espresso for dessert and to my surprise it was the one I liked the least so far here in Lausanne. Needless to say I was disappointed with this visit, a huge contrast to my previous a couple of years ago. Let's hope this was simply a one off and that the next try will bring things to the good side again.

Pizza was good. Decorations are fun for young crowd- lots of graffiti and character. I'm sorry I…read moredon't remember the names of the pizzas but they were good. One had spinach and an egg and the other had basil leaves and olive oil. 2 glasses of wine, 2 pizzas and 2 scoops gelato was about $80. That is a lot for an American tourist, but may not be surprising to a Swiss person.

Great other Swiss food items such as Röstis, saucisson or fondue vigneronne (red wine based broth in which you dip your meat slices, comes with fries and a variety of sauces). My favorite dish is the Parisienne de Boeuf 250g, it costs CHF 30.- with salad/veggies and home made fries!)
