“This charming spot is half cozy Italian restaurant and half independent bookstore, creating an atmosphere that’s both intellectually stimulating and warmly inviting.

The Sicilian shrimp carpaccio (Carpaccio di gambero) was exquisitely fresh, pairing perfectly with the aromatic fennel and oranges. The Eggplant flan (Flan di melanzane) was a delightful surprise, with its creamy texture and rich flavor. The pasta dishes, particularly the Linguine alle vongole and the Gigli con ceci e gamberi, were cooked to perfection, offering authentic tastes of Italy.

To complement the meal, the Green Citrus Iced Tea was refreshingly crisp, and the classic Tiramisu provided a sweet, satisfying conclusion. Not to forget the excellent Mimosa and robust Cappuccino that were the cherries on top of a fantastic dining experience.

Sullaluna is more than just a place to eat; it’s a haven where you can relax. Whether you’re a bookworm, a foodie, or just in search of a pleasant spot to unwind, Sullaluna is an absolute must-visit.“

“Very cozy local restaurant. Service was excellent. Food was delicious and hot to the table. We spent over 2 hours at the table and no one rushed us. Very friendly staff with good sense of humor. I had sea scallops with mushroom orzo which were tender and sweet. I recommend the profiteroles with coconut ice cream best ever.“

“What a hidden gem. The perfect French bistro with matching menu and drinks. Food was great and staff couldn't have been nicer. We got a seat right away which in this area tends to be shear luck! Great music. Atmosphere is spot on...easily could have been in a little street of Paris. Only thing missing was an espresso,but I'm looking forward to coming back for sure!“

“This multi level French brasserie caught our eye by sheer luck! I love the beautiful entrance to the restaurant very colorful. They have a full bar service and a live opera on Saturday nights. Our server Jorge G. Was so helpful and engaging. I think he sensed it was our time here! We ordered the seared salmon and croque monsieur and truffle fries because why not!“
