We were a group of 12 celebrating my son’s thesis defense. Il Cortile checked off all the boxes and more! Food was impeccable (we’re Italian, so expectations were high!), service of very high calibre (thank you Francis) and overall experience in the courtyard unforgettable. This is a gem of a restaurant that I highly recommend.
One of my all time favourite restaurants - always the best experience - and ask for James !! 🥳
Food was tasty and the service was great
