I pass this shop every day on my way to the office and always admire the large window which allows a peak into a world of sumptuous joys.

I have only managed to go in once and only had time to browse for a few minutes but during my short stay I noticed a small but then again not that small assortment of different chocolates (bars, as well as collections suitable as small presents), spices and teas. The shop owners seemed helpful and friendly (the good kind of friendly).
Ice cream fans will be delighted to hear that they offer Ben&Jerry's.
Will return for more. So far, a nice impression.

The place not only looks nice, the waiter staff is quite ok and friendly, the non-smoking area is definitely smoke-free and far from the smoking area, the pasta was incredibly good and the pizza I took a bite from was also quite good.

All in all, a good experience.

U-Bahnstation Westbahnhof

Reviewed 15. Nov 2008

Usually, I have to wait for a really long time to receive my desired food, which is only a little annoying when being on lunch break and not having that much time to wait in line.

The first time I had to wait about 15-20 minutes for my pasta, because the sauce wasn't hot yet, then someone else received the wrong pasta and they had to re-do theirs before they could get to my order, then they had to re-heat my noodles because they've turned cold again in the process...
The pasta comes in two sizes - huge and a little more huge. Which is a good thing. Don't order pasta if you're only a little hungry.
The ciabattas come in interesting flavors and combinations, which all look delicious indeed and not only look like that. All in all, ok for lunch break or breakfast (yes, they do offer breakfast as well --> muesli and muffins and such) and the quality of the food is good but I do have a feeling that sometimes the people behind the counter are a little...lost.

Discovered this place because it is conveniently close to the office.

They not only have very nice tables to sit inside, in the back there is also a nice and cosy garden, which is quite enjoyable in summer. The menu changes in a regular basis. You won't find any pizza on the menu, though (at least, I haven't, so far). Instead, a lot of dishes with fresh sea food are served, as well as risotto, different variations of pasta. Sea food is their speciality, though. If we can believe the friendly bi-lingual waiter, it is fresh every single day you get there (no Tuesday-only deliveries but daily).

A bit on the pricey side but worth it.
