06/10/2025: As always, top quality and quantity...my favorite is the €20 aperitif where there's a bit of everything and it's very plentiful.
06/10/2025: PARKING: THE TREASURE HUNT STARTS HERE
Largo Europa is certainly not "large" in name or in fact. Finding a spot is like winning a scratch-off ticket: it can happen, but don't count on it. If you enjoy the thrill of stunt parking or are a fan of "I'll put on my hazard lights and see," then you're in the right place.
ATMOSPHERE: LIGHTS, SHADOWS, AND CHANGING LEDS
The interior is spacious, airy, and well-lit. The LED lamp above each table changes color like a changing mood, but it succeeds in its purpose: it gives the evening that touch of intimacy that never hurts.
The only shame is that the tables are a little too close together: you feel part of a big extended family, even if you don't know anyone.
MENU
The menu is generous, varied, and appetizing. We opted for the apericena, choosing a full menu: honest portions and a selection that's filling without boring. The philosophy is clear: you come here for substance rather than aesthetics.
DRINKS: PROSECCO PASSED, SPRITZ IN THE CARE UNIT
The Prosecco does its job: sparkling, fresh, and timely.
The Spritz, on the other hand, seems like the result of a dispute between Aperol and Prosecco: uncertain doses, no balance. You drink it, sure, but more to quench your thirst than for pleasure. Let's just say it's not the cocktail that reconciles you with life after a hard day.
SERVICE AND WELCOMING: FACADE KINDNESS, SMILE ON STRIKE
The staff operates efficiently, but the empathy is probably left in the refrigerator next to the beers. There's politeness, but little warmth. The customer is welcomed, not embraced.
In short, it's fine for dining, less so for feeling like a "guest."
BILL: FAIR WITHOUT TROUBLESHOOTING
Prices are in line with the market, perhaps even slightly lower considering the quantity and selection. The quality-price ratio saves the day and earns a passing grade with a smile (ours, not theirs).
FINAL VERDICT: THREE STARS, BUT NO SPARK
"Al Macello" doesn't disappoint, but it's not surprising. It's one of those places you could mistake for ten others like it, and no one would notice.
A place where you eat decently, drink so-so, and leave with the feeling that... yes, it was good, but it could have been better.
