The atmosphere is warm and beautifully designed, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy your time. The pistachio coffee is simply outstanding, and the pistachio desserts and pastries are on another level—fresh, rich, and full of flavor. Without a doubt, some of the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommended! Fantastisch 🥰
Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I ordered two pastries and two regular cappuccinos, dined in, and paid €14.
What I didn’t like:
- The pastries (especially the pistachio cube) didn’t taste fresh at all. It genuinely felt like it had been sitting on the shelf for several days. The pastry was so dry that it was difficult to chew.
- The pistachio cube was heated before serving (I assume in a microwave). Maybe that’s common here in Rome, but I’ve never had a laminated pastry served that way. It may have been done to soften the pastry, but it was overheated to the point where the filling was like lava, and I burned my mouth.
- There were no prices displayed anywhere in the cafe, not on the pastries or the menu. To make matters worse, the receipt only showed the total amount, without listing the prices of individual items. As a customer, I’d like to know what I’m paying for. Without any visible pricing, it’s impossible to verify the bill, which doesn’t inspire much confidence. Could I be charged more as a tourist compared to the locals? Easily.
What I did like:
- The staff were genuinely friendly, welcoming, and efficient. They smiled, provided quick service, and made us feel welcome.
- The pistachio filling itself was excellent: rich, creamy, and packed with real pistachio flavor.
- The cappuccino was also very good.
Overall, I wouldn’t return. Serving pastries that don’t seem fresh is something I find difficult to overlook, as it gives the impression that customer satisfaction isn’t a priority. I hope this feedback is taken constructively and helps improve the experience for future visitors.
