Outside Italy, one must go to a very luxurious Italian restaurant to enjoy a full-flavored satisfying Tiramisù. It's usually meh everywhere else.
Make it at home if you can, OP. It's not too difficult, given access to all of the right ingredients.

Your Italian language skills are too low for you to be posting this.

Those Savoiardi biscuits are amazing on their own, egg-y and not too sweet.

I don't think I like traditional Tiramisu. I once went to my old college at the University of London and there were some students at a stand selling Tiramisu portions for 1 pound each, the proceeds going to charity. They had used no mascarpone cheese, but cream, and it was delicious; the most delicious tiramisu I've ever had. I suppose that is sacrilege.

The coffee, booze and biscuits have to be the best. The coffee and booze have to be powerful and equal, then blended together by the cream & egg.

I dislike rum cake and many booze desserts, but this one I like. Sadly its rare cooks, or rather "kitchens" I suppose, get the coffee and booze right. That's my point of view. Maybe people like a bland sweet result.

Not just tiramisu. Most dishes are better at a “truly luxurious” restaurant.

I was once molested by tiramisu.

It is perhaps one of the most over-done and bastardized desserts out there. Enduring thousands of bad variations on this stuff during the 1990's pretty much killed Tiramisu for me (OK, in honesty I stopped trying them after the first 100 or so...). To each his own, but I really can't think of any particular restaurant that makes a good version of this recipe. It strikes me as a "lazy" dessert for the masses that is easy to make in bulk and rather cheaply.

R16 it's not easy to make, no one gets it right

R17 - I do not disagree with you, but as I said - it is easy to make in BULK. I think that somewhat explains an element of its popularity.
