The only downside was the dining area, which deserves 4 stars because there was no air conditioning, making it a bit uncomfortable, especially during the warmer hours.
It would also be great to see halal beef pasta added to the menu, as it would give more customers the opportunity to enjoy the amazing pasta dishes.
Overall, a great place for delicious pasta and excellent hospitality. I would happily come back!
