The inside of the store was dimly lit and the lamps were shining, creating a very nice atmosphere. However, it seems that you may not be able to get in unless you make a reservation, so I recommend making a reservation in advance! Not only was the food delicious, but the waiters were all very nice! The non-alcoholic drinks were also delicious. There were many people eating raw oysters, so I would like to ask for some time.
This one of those restaurants that is so good me adding my two cents feels redundant. But folks lemme tell you, WOW! I had the puffed gnooc, the shrimp pasta and the nebiola. The appetizer was freshly made, a light fluffy pastry textured almost filo airy but thick to the mouth, in house cured meats and freshly made mozzarella buttered clouds... The pasta perfectly to the teeth, the sauce rich and satisfying with a creamy but not overwhelming as if each strains of pasto was coated...
Loved the vibe, our server was attentive and the food was great. Highly recommend the bolognese. Shout out to their table bussing staff, so attentive on clearing dishes between meals and providing new silverware, they brought my rating from a 4 start to a 5.
