" I had high expectations for Sfoglina and let's just say, it met most of them. The staff were friendly and efficient, the atmosphere was lovely, but I found the pasta to be slightly bland. Although I did enjoy the rich dessert, I felt the savory items could use a little more creativity. Maybe it was just a rough day in the kitchen, as I would be willing to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sfoglina is a beautiful restaurant that serves excellent Italian food. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant, perfect for a nice evening out. The homemade bread is a must-try, and I recommend the squid ink noodles as they were so well prepared! The dessert options are plentiful; I thoroughly enjoyed the panna cotta too! I will certainly be back to try more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the food fell short of my expectations. The portions were on the smaller side, which left me feeling a bit unsatisfied after my meal. I tried the seafood pasta, which was underwhelming and lacked seasoning. The staff were lovely, but considering the prices, I expected more in terms of flavor. I might come back to try a different dish, but this visit was merely okay. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience at Sfoglina! We visited for my friend's birthday, and I was blown away by the freshness of the food and the warm atmosphere. The pasta was clearly homemade, and the carbonara was to die for – the right amount of creaminess with perfectly cooked guanciale. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the complimentary dessert made our day extra special. Highly recommend for any special occasion or a casual meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sfoglina after hearing great things, and it was a mixed bag for me. The food was delicious, particularly the seafood pasta, but the servings were a little smaller than expected. The atmosphere was busy yet vibrant, which is good for a lively night. I'm not sure if it warrants a return visit, given that there are many other Italian places to explore. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was inviting with a true Italian feel. My favorite was the gnocchi with a creamy sauce. Every bite was luxurious and satisfying! Our server was extremely knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. They also surprised us with a complimentary dessert for our anniversary, which touched our hearts. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved my experience at Sfoglina! We ordered various pasta dishes, and they were delightful! Special mention to the truffle gnocchi; it took me to cloud nine. The complimentary dessert was icing on the cake! Our waiter was very engaging and helpful. The atmosphere was casual yet refined; I will certainly be recommending this place to friends and family!
