This Italian restaurant has a very cozy vibes. the ambience was nice, very quiet and romantic. the service was excellent, the waitress was very attentive and polite. The food was okay, not the best that i have eaten, i expect more of it's homemade ravioli. i will recommend the tiramisu but not the cheesecake, too sweet and too heavy in flavors. make sure to reserve a table upstairs if you want a more quiet ambience. 😉

Authentic Italian food and reasonable prices. Wonderful ambiance of a small family run business. It's not the largest restaurant, but not cramped either. We had the boar ragu with papardele and the truffles risotto. Both were incredible. The risotto was al dente and creamy with an abundance of shaved truffles. The boar ragu was with some vegetables and was delicate, tender and light. The sauce and pasta blended seamlessly. Overall a splendid menu with a great wine selection as well. Enjoy!

Refined Italian food, warm welcome, excellent service, cosy and romantic setting. Pricey but fresh ingredients and authentic touch justify the prices. Go for the house specialities rather than the dishes you can find in any other Italian restaurant (example: burrata). The tiramisu is among the best in the world (and I’ve tasted quite a few!) .

Excellent food and very nice service. Though believe it is better to sit in 1st rather than ground floor.

Starters were great, especially the grilled polenta and the buffala, however the main courses were average quality and extremely overpriced for that quality.

Had not been to La Favola for about 15 years and found it again at the suggestion of a friend. Very “ sympathique” atmosphere in this small restaurant located in a charming street in the old city. Very decent, reasonably priced italian dishes . Excellent alternative to the louder, showier Italian restaurants in town .
