Service staff good made you feel very welcome, sharing platter for 2 nice but why 3 olives? 1.5 each ?. Main course small portions and lacked flavour. Why do different coloured Parmesan crisps, blue should not be be a colour on the plate with the ravioli’s Also chose a bottle of wine, he said this one’s better yes when we got bill 12 Swiss francs more. That should have been mentioned when he upscaled us. We have had better meals in Geneva, this place just didn’t hit the food spot, ambiance and waiters all good.

10/10Marco and Salvatore were awesome. Felt like family, treated like royalty! The food was world-class! A very special event, not just for excellent food, but for unforgettable service.

9.5/10as advertised the food was excellent. The outdoor seating was less than optimal being on a busy street with motorcycles and cars passing by. The bench seating is quite uncomfortable.

8/10My husbands dish was wonderful. I ordered a side salad and small cheese plate that had a lot of Parmesan and not much else. There was supposed to be jam and honey but there wasn’t. My husband had one glass of wine that was only 3 oz but cost around $14. We found this restaurant to be extremely expensive. Our bill was around $100 with automatic tip.

8/10This was a very nice place for a casual dinner. The three guys who own/run the place are very nice though one of the brothers was a little more involved in interacting with me than was needed. He was trying to be friendly but it became intrusive at a point. Just pull back a little and everything will be fine. Food was very good, especially after two weeks of French cuisine.

9.5/10The food was excellent (best risotto I’ve ever had and I’ve been to Italy several times). The service was fantastic as well. All in all a great dining experience!

8/10Small restaurant with very friendly staff. Ambience was nothing special. The food was good but overpriced, even by Geneva standards (bearing mind the location and amenities of the restaurant) I was expecting a much more authentic atmosphere Overall good but certainly not a 5 star experience.

6.5/10Not our first visit, and clearly this has become a most popular restaurant with a full bookings diary on a Friday evening. Prices have now risen to reflect that popularity: >SwFr 100 per person (3 courses + 1 wine between two of us) is perhaps a little toppy - for our tastes at least. Effusive welcome and effective table service, albeit you’ll be hugamuga with diners at the next table.

10/10Love going to Spinella for various occasions. Felt like something cozy and romantic tonight- so we were seated outside (less noisy than inside): for classic pasta/contadina with red wine. Of course had to try the seasonal cocktails. Sometimes a hit, sometimes a miss; but it's always fun to try. And tiramisu for dessert; the classic and the pistaccio one.

10/10The brothers that own this restaurant are so welcoming. They greet you like you’re an old friend. They all studied mixology and have wonderful and creative drinks. For dinner we had eggplant parmigiana and I had the special. If I lived here I’d be a frequent customer.

10/10Found this place through Tripadvisior and loved it. The food is excellent. We live in NYC so have been to many good Italian restaurants but found this place to be fantastic. Their spin on their dishes are unique and delicious. The servers are nice and welcoming.

9/10the steak was not a filet but a cheaper cut sirloin, the flavor was good but was almost to touch to eat. the potatoes were very good and the mushroom gravy was great. the ravioli was amazing, but the gnocchi is sub par. salads were also very good.
