28/03/2026: A truly delightful little place in the Piazza Bologna area.
Very elegant interiors, divided into two rooms and two terraces: in the upper room, the decor, as the name suggests, is in Victorian Parisian style, with velvet sofas and armchairs, bistro tables, and Belle Époque prints. There's a piano in the dining room, reminiscent of themed musical evenings.
The first room is simpler, with just a cash register and a counter, but still characterized by understated elegance. One of the terraces is very charming and resembles a small greenhouse, with a white metal structure and fairy lights.
The savory menu (I had an aperitif) is very good: I quickly looked at the sandwiches, which, in addition to having unique names, also offer very appreciable culinary choices.
The wine list is also good, and I saw several bottles in the cellars adjacent to the dining room, suggesting a wide selection.
None of us tried the cocktails, so I won't comment.
We opted for the platter with a drink (€15, a very fair price), and the quality is immediately apparent.
Excellent, refined products: truly superior quality in the selection of items presented (brown bread, pepper bread with vegetables, bresaola, prosciutto, salami (all the cured meats are top-quality), cheeses, fig compote, warm scamorza cheese with speck, toasted bread with raw olive oil, and more I'm probably forgetting!). We also chose to try the off-menu platter with wild boar cured meats: excellent!
All without skimping on the price!
Along with the wine, which is a positive note, as an entrée, we received samples of mini pizzas and butter croissants with cheese: much appreciated!!
It's just a shame it's not very popular from what I saw, as on Friday there weren't many people, which also means the place closes early.
I found it to be a real gem for the area, and I really hope that with the new season they change their hours and, as the owner mentioned, they organize themed musical evenings.
My only regret is that I don't have any photos.
I definitely want to return for a very slow breakfast...
