Reviews Summary

Seed offers a generally positive dining experience with highly praised cuisine and attentive service, particularly noted for its romantic atmosphere and unique dishes. However, some guests have encountered inconsistencies in service speed and found certain dishes to be not to their taste, leading to mixed reviews regarding overall value and consistency.

"This was a satisfying and truly great-value meal! Not only did they offer an unlimited selection of diverse and delicious dishes at the buffet, but the main course was also outstanding.

Since I can’t eat fried food, I politely declined their generous offer to change my meal. However, they still insisted on letting me reorder a new main course, and the fresh fish fillet I chose was absolutely delicious—juicy, perfectly cooked, and, of course, completely boneless. 😍

On top of that, the spirit-free drinks were excellent as well. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience that I truly enjoyed."

"Great service. But food... Whatever we ordered was, for our taste, either bitter or tastles or too spicy or... not good. Tomato soup was OK, but the topping on the bread was too spicy. Grilled pepper appetizer dish did not taste right at all - bitter pepper with cheese dressing and sweet pomegranate seeds - you decide. I would not recommend that. Plus some peppers were cleaned inside, but some were never opened and had seeds in them. The Rabbit ravioli were ok, but for me, the sauce was overwhelming by its consistency without providing any special taste. The "fancy" pork chop was a little rubbery and tasteless. And, finally, the desert. This is actually one of the only few restaurants where I could not pick anything at all for dessert. Different ice cream-based options did not make a good choice for the cool weather... Not sure who said this is a Michelin Star restaurant. Definitely not!"

"Seed is highly recommended. From the cozy restaurant you have a view of the Pjazza Santa Rita and the Santa Rita chapel. You can go here for fresh and original dishes that will undoubtedly surprise you. We chose the Beef Carpaccio and Nero di Sepia Taglioni as a starter. As a main course, we noticed the Butterfly Sea bream and Grilled Iberico Pluma. There was nothing wrong with any of the dishes and the flavors were surprising. The extensive wine list certainly appealed to us as well. A top location!"
