Italian restaurant on Veronica Micle, with a Sardinian chef and recipes adjusted on request
Branzino ravioli in a livornese sauce and burrata, named explicitly in reviews, plus recipes adjusted on request
Worth it for Italian cooking done seriously and for staff who know what they are serving. Bring cash for the tip: it cannot be left by card.
Italian restaurant on Veronica Micle street, open daily from 10:00 to 23:00, with a terrace and free parking. Reviews praise the food and the staff in equal measure. One guest notes that the chef is from Sardinia and is open to cooking or adjusting recipes not on the menu, which helps with dietary restrictions. The tomato soup, the burrata, branzino ravioli in a livornese sauce, the margherita pizza, the arrabbiata pasta, a vegetarian soup, salmon carpaccio and, in one review, the best oysters that guest had ever eaten, with a waiter who knew exactly where they came from, are all named explicitly. The place is not packed, which allows for quiet conversation. A four-star guest has one reservation: the sea bass pasta was not to their taste, the flavours staying separate on the plate. Another notes that tips cannot be left by card.

Unfortunately I couldn't not leave tips by card, could you please fix this option?! Thank you! We enjoyed our visit very much!”
“This is a really authentic Italian restaurant. I had a vegetarian soup, margarita pizza and pasta arabitta. All were above our expectations 👍. Keep up the excellent food.”
“Scrumptious food, great service and very attentive and knowledgeable staff. Definitely will be back and recommending to everyone who craves “gusto italiano” while not leaving Chisinau. We had tomato soup, burrata, branzino ravioli done with a livornese red sauce, it was amazing, simple yet so flavorful. PS. Their chef is from Sardegna, and apparently they are willing and open f…”
