"We arrived at 19.30, the restaurant was packed and the sound level high. This Italian eatery is considered one of the best in Lausanne and we used to come here often but stopped some 10 years ago. The menu is restricted and lacks real vegetarian alternatives. In comparison, the wine list features many good alternatives some of which are rather pricey. We each had a pasta-seafood dish that were just OK and the 2014 Cabernet-Sauvignon from Lake Garda that we were proposed as an open wine alternative was at the very end of its life cycle, so not really up to our expectation. Over time while eating, we noted progressive rather intoxicating kitchen fumes and once out of the restaurant we quickly realized we needed to take another shower and put all our clothes in our washing machine, requiring a double cycle to get rid of the restaurant kitchen odors.The owners really need to get their act together and improve the evacuation of the fumes from their kitchen! Once and if that has been done, we might return."
