📍Zhongshan District, Taipei City (near Dazhi MRT Station)
An exquisite and bright Italian bistro 🇮🇹🍝
There are not many seats in the restaurant, so it is recommended to make a reservation online. The decor style is quite comfortable!
The staff is very attentive and will always pay attention to the guests' needs ☺️
All meals come with bread, soup, and drinks. The great thing is that the soup and drinks are self-serve and unlimited 🫶🏻 You can add your own pepper, and those who love soup will be super happy!

Dishes ordered:
🍄 White Truffle Fettuccine with Porcini Mushrooms ($320):
The menu kindly notes the type of pasta used for each dish.
The fettuccine is slightly firm and has a nice chew!
Coated in a rich porcini mushroom sauce, it is a perfect Italian pasta.
🍋 Caprese Lemon Cream Chicken Fettuccine ($280):
The sauce is a bit thin, and the lemon and cream flavors seem to be somewhat separate.
Plus, the fettuccine doesn't hold the sauce well. I had previously enjoyed a delicious lemon cream pasta, but this one fell short of my expectations.
🐔 Crispy Fried Chicken Wings ($110):
Not highly recommended; the portion is very small, and the meat is rather sparse and dry.
🍄
Will I return? Yes!
Overall, the food quality is good, the environment pleasant, the service excellent, and the prices reasonable! I will want to try other pasta and risottos next time.

People who like to eat noodles that are a little bit hard will definitely love this restaurant
This restaurant ranks among the top three in Italy this year
▫️ Balsamic vinegar duck breast $340
Incredibly delicious, this dish is really great! It’s rare to see balsamic vinegar paired with cream. I don’t like creamy pasta, but the combination of cream and balsamic vinegar in this restaurant is perfect. Yes, the role of cream makes the overall taste mild and soft, without being sour and choking! Another thing I like very much is that the hardness of their noodles is perfectly controlled, hard but not overcooked! I will definitely come here next time I'm going to try their other pastas again! This one was a little greasy in the end, probably because the sauce base is cream, but overall I think it's really great, and it's definitely this. One of the must-eat meals at home.
▫️ Red wine braised lamb knee risotto $660
The lamb knee was super large...the meat was stewed soft and tender, and it was easy to tear the meat from the bones. I think the rice core of the risotto was a little soft, but the overall taste was very good, and the freshness of the lamb could also be tasted in the sauce. Taste
▫️ Tiramisu $140 / Caramel Brulee $120
Desserts are okay but not that memorable. The tiramisu seems to be a little wetter (no alcohol flavor); the caramel baked brûlée I like the sugar to be thicker and the texture of the brûlée itself to be softer.
Overall
I was blown away by the pasta! Will definitely be returning!
There is soup and milk tea in the store that you can take for yourself
It is a high-rated store with both delicious food and CP value!!!
