Good fish, good(if salty) pasta, and friendly service — don’t be put off by the store-bought olives. While staying at the Hotel Plattenhof above the restaurant, we stopped by for a easy meal, and basically tried each category on the«seasonal specialties» sheet. The tagliatelle al salmone was salty, but delicious; pasta was reasonably cooked, and didn’t fall apart. The oven-baked fish was quite good; the broiled lemon slice on each filet was a nice touch. As our waiter reminded us, there’s nothing besides the fish and a sprig of garnish — we were glad to have a split-side of buttery risotto and spinach(both excellent). We didn’t have the confidence to try the seasonal strawberry risotto — just too far out. The open red & white wines, decaf, tiramisù, and brandy were all sufficient but not spectacular. Service(both the experienced waiter and the trainee) was solid; the waiter even noticed our grimaces at the motion-detector bird noises and switched it off for a while. The low point of the meal was the first thing brought to our table — a little dish of black & green pitted olives that could have come from a Migros or Coop, or a food service can. If you’re going to bring out olives, get some interesting ones. Get past the olives, and Sento can be an excellent meal.

Netter Quartier-Italiener. Über Mittag oft relativ voll und die Bedienung entsprechend gereizt. Am Abend is(s)t man meistens fast alleine. Hin und wieder verirrt sich ein Hotelgast ins Restaurant. Abends ist die Bedienung immer sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Auf der Karte findet man klassische italienische Gerichte.
