Una coccola! Ci siamo sentiti coccolati grazie allo staff attento, preciso e cordiale. Il cibo è super ed è servito su piatti davvero apprezzabili. Perfetto per una cena intima.

Un’ esperienza sicuramente positiva e sorprendente, quella del cenare dal “il Tempo Sospeso”. Cucina contemporanea ma allo stesso tempo tradizionale, con sapori decisi ed intramontabili che riescono a trasportarti e farti viaggiare grazie all’eccellente realizzazione ed interpretazione, nonché all’eccellenza delle materie prime scelte. Esperienza sicuramente da rivivere!

Più che una cena: una vera e propria experience. Siamo stati accolti da un clima veramente famigliare e da un ambiente dove già alla prima occhiata si può percepire che il cliente è davvero importante e non un numero: tavoli distanziati, ambiente super pulito e in ordine. Uno dei pochi locali trovati dove, volendo fare il menù degustazione, abbiamo potuto scegliere che cosa mangiare senza essere vincolati dalla “tavolata”.. i proprietari sono cortesi e pacati, l’ambiente è tranquillo e i piatti sono davvero eccezionali! Ci torneremo sicuramente

Tutto top! Curato nei minimi dettagli come l'esperienza richiede. Menù raffinato e ricercato. Si esce soddisfatti

A special and memorable gastronomic experience, to enjoy slowly.

Bella e intima la location, il cibo una coccola dagli entree al dolce. Un pranzo da assaporare. Ci torneremo sicuramente

What an exquisite dining experience! Sadly, I do not speak Italian, but our kind and generous host (way beyond waitress) communicated with us perfectly! She and her chef partner were very supportive of my veganism and of my mom’s vegetarianism. We had the most delicious and beautiful meal!! The entire dining experience was truly beautiful, comfortable, and delicious!!
