Good Italian food, quiet location
First The location - since its not very easy to find with just the address: On 100 ft Rd. in Indranagar, travel north (towards the old madras rd.). After KFC and just before the Dominos pizza (which will be on your left side) you will see a little lane. Turn left into that lane and then take the 2nd right (which is the 7th cross) all the way to the T-junction. The restaurant will be on your right side.
Food: Pretty good. These guys know how to bring out the true Italian flavor (using olive oil, oregano and basil). I find that many of the other so-called italian restaurants don't really know what italian dining is about. I had the spinach and cheese ravioli in tamato-basil pesto. Came with a little salad and an assortment of good breads. I asked for a little butter as well (they gave me some shavings of butter ... I would have liked to have more but didn't want to be too pushy). I did see a display case of deserts but some of them didn't look fresh so I avoided desert.
Environment: Small and pretty plain, but clean. Not crowded at all during dinner time. If the environment was a little fancier, it would be ideal place to spend time with your date. Menu on chalk board could use better handwriting skills. There are about 15 entrees listed - about half of them veg).
Cost: All entrees range around Rs. 200 to Rs 250 (would give it a $$$ for cost rating). The portion sizes aren't sufficient for a large guy like me .. but it seems all Italian and other non-indian cuisine restaurants are guilty about this. More like a large snack rather than dinner (i.e., no burrps here).
