It took a while to write this review, but at this point, I think it’s going to be reliable, since I tried a lot of creations from Etna. Everything was absolutely fantastic. Especially reasonably priced Pasticini. The staff is very friendly. I took a big orders twice already, everything was very tasty and fresh.
