I migliori ristorantinella città Vicolungo della Novara

05/10/2025: Excellent service, congratulations to the guys

04/10/2025: Cool ambiance with a nice atmosphere 🍷 However, the music was much too loud for comfortable conversation. The pasta tasted okay, but the portions were rather small. The young staff was friendly, but a bit hectic – plates were cleared away even though we were still eating. There's still room for improvement.

11/01/2026: I went on January 10, 2026, for a snack with my family (2 adults, 2 children). The bathroom was dirty and smelled bad. The toilet ran constantly. I washed my hands and the tap only came out dripping. There were no napkins to dry my hands, and a dirty hand dryer, so I left without drying my hands. We ordered, but there's no table service—you have to bring your own food. The staff kept talking and laughing loudly, even making us wait to finish their jokes. My son's pistachio brioche was fluorescent green, verging on blue. The small croissant was dry and nauseating. The triple chocolate dessert was so-so, it looked like three hard puddings. Another customer near our table, with two hot chocolates with cream, was disgusted by the service. Honestly, for the price, I expected a completely different service and product. I can understand a service station, but given the name it carries, I'm very disappointed.

09/01/2026: I tried Antonino – Il Banco di Cannavacciuolo for a quick break, and the experience was pleasant, but I wasn't entirely convinced by the price and setting. I had a pain suisse (chocolate and cream brioche): the pastry was crispy, well-baked, and overall the product was definitely good and well-made. The filling was pleasant, and the texture was what you'd expect from a dessert of this type. That said, I personally didn't find it excellent or so "wow" as to make me say it was worth the extra cost: it's a good product, but it didn't leave me with that extra something that justifies a premium price. As for drinks, the coffee and English Breakfast tea are also adequate and well-served, but without any particular distinguishing features (aroma/service/presentation) that make them stand out from other places. The real sticking point remains the quality/price ratio: in an outlet location, you'd expect a bar more suited to a quick break, but here the prices are decidedly higher (in my case, €9.10 for tea, coffee, and pain suisse). I understand the name and the "signature" approach, but in that context, the experience didn't seem superior enough to make up for the expense. In summary: everything was good and tidy, but between the high prices for the location and the good but unmemorable product, I'd give it an average rating. I'd probably only return on a case-by-case basis, knowing what to expect.
