Italien restaurant in the middle of university quarter of Berne…read more I had a business meeting at noon there. The place is quite crowded but with the high cielings this is no problem from noice perspective - alttgough you definitely need a reservation. Service is efficient - food is typically italian - prices are moderate.

Casa d'Italia was very disappointing. From the slow service we received to the dishes that we ate…read more We ordered the 5 dl of the Chianti which turned out to be a little overwhelming and didn't suit our meals (an issue we should have realized). The focaccia bread was the highlight of our meal. It had a light tomato sauce with fresh arugula and cherry tomatoes, finished off with a light drizzle of olive oil. I ordered the seafood risotto which consisted of shrimp, mussels, clams, and calamari. Aside from the presentation, the dish was very off. The mussels and shrimp were the only edible seafood on the plate, and the risotto lacked flavor. My friend got the gnocchi pomodoro which was very basic and also had poor flavor. It tasted like watered down tomato paste with a small pinch of salt. The pizza that other tables ordered looked very good, so I would assume that would be the thing to get if you find yourself here. Based off of the service we received, I would not choose to return.

The food was not bad, but the service was beyond slow. We waited close to an hour and it was early…read moreafternoon. The ambiance is kinda nice as you can see many people walk by if you're outside. Just the service was slow to take our order, slow to get food and just slow to find people to pay for our meal. No clue where they went.

We loved this little quiet restaurant with probably the best pizza we ever had. The service was…read moreexcellent, the food was outstanding and so reasonable. We wish we lived near here so we could visit often but we live in Seattle Washington.

Great Lasagna, long awaited…read more My wife and I were recently in Bern and needed some dinner. Some of our tour group went to the Westside Mall and found Spiga. A few of the guys on the trip had been looking for some Lasagna, and this was our 3rd city to try to find some. I know what you're thinking. You're in Switzerland - and you want Italian food? Hey, it happens. Well, Spiga did a fantastic job! The folks that took care of us - from taking the order to those cooking our food - were all pleasant and understanding. Let me elaborate. The guy that prepared our lasagna said his wife was from Switzerland when he met her in the States, and they had moved back over here. He was originally from Miami, FL, had also spent 11 years in Augusta, GA, and they were moving to Nashville, TN next month for a new job he was starting. It's a small world, isn't it? Anyway, those of us that had the Lasagna felt it was exceptionally good - especially considering to have found it in a shopping mall in Bern, Switzerland - a long way from home. So, if you're in the area or simply passing through, be sure to try the Lasagna at Spiga's in the Westside mall.

I doubted this place because it is in a mall food court. Turns out to be very good. The selection…read moreis wide and the food is fresh.

The bread service was delicious. They had a good selection of local wines. We got the local white wine, which was really tasty. We started off with the mixed fried seafood and vegetables. The house made tartar sauce was amazing. It reminded me of being back in Lake Como. I then got the specialty of the house which was a clam and butter sauce pasta. The pasta was fresh and made by the restaurant. My husband also got a tomato based pasta, which was also good. The tiramisu was amazing and decadent and luscious. Love the cream in the tiramisu. Overall, a very beautiful and romantic meal. Oh yes, and we also had to try the fresh very very very fresh oysters. These were amazing and honestly, we should've gotten more than two.
