    Sehr gutes, authentisch italienisches Trattoria Essen in authentischer Trattoria Atmosphäre. Äusserst netter und kompetenter Service. Sehr zu empfehlen, wenn man in CBD ohne Chi-Chi gut italienisch essen möchte.

    The food we had tasted very good but wish the menu had more choices. Service was good but we did have to wait a bit for drink order and bill. Was surprised that a glass of wine was only about 4 ounces yet full price for what is usually at least 6 oz.

    This was our first visit to Scala Lane and definitely won't be our last. Food was perfect and the service was wonderful without feeling over-bearing or stuffy. Can't wait to go back.

    Such a cute happening place! Just know it’s located in an alleyway that can be a little hard to find. The food is fantastic! I had the Gorgonzola risotto that was the best I’ve ever had. The rest of my party had the pappardelle pasta that they said was excellent. Truly a great find.
