About Farina

Farina is a highly regarded restaurant in the metro, offering a diverse menu with well-balanced dishes. The black rice, veal chop, and prawns are standout items, although the freshness of the prawns is sometimes questionable. The appetizer bread, flavored olive oil, and green olives are particularly delicious. The modern Italian menu showcases meticulously prepared, hand-made pastas, and the restaurant has received praise for its accommodating nature, making it ideal for both intimate dinner dates and larger business gatherings in private rooms.

Recent customers have had wonderful experiences. One mentioned an "absolutely perfect evening" with a variety of dishes like veal, oyster mushrooms, Italian salad, duck meatballs, black squid ink pasta, and tiramisu. Another highlighted the "amazing" service, noting the friendly and knowledgeable server. They enjoyed sitting at the oyster bar, where they were treated to a full menu and friendly conversation with the chef about the exceptional highwater oysters from Hog Island. The meal included burrata with caviar, Hokkaido scallops, carbonara, and the delightful affogato, which was a blend of bitter and sweet flavors. The tiramisu had a unique floral note from orange zest and liquor, adding to its deliciousness. The quality of the food is reflected in the prices, and the portions are perfectly sized for enjoying a full course meal. Farina continues to impress, and many customers are eager to return.
