| - I came here for my sister's birthday dinner with both of our SOs, and all four of us agreed that the food and the service were truly fantastic!
We started with a cocktail by the bar while we waited for our table; cocktails were 10/10. The bartender completely understood our tastes and made wonderful modifications that all of us really enjoyed.
Once seated, here's what we ordered:
Branzino (10/10) - This is prepared table side, and is absolutely the most delicious ceviche you'll ever have, ever. I would go back just for this! We ordered their bread knots to accompany the branzino, also 10/10.
Burrata Pizza (9.5/10) - This was absolutely perfect, with the exception that the burrata made the rest of the pizza lukewarm instead of hot. Still, I would order again and again and again.
Bigoli (9/10) - Delicious without being too creamy. Would definitely re-order this.
Polipo (8.95/10) - I thought this was going to be my favourite order, and it was great, but I don't think it compared to the branzino or pizza. Still, I would be happy to order this again!
Finally, we ordered the pizelle for dessert (9/10) with espresso and cappuccinos all around.
As for the service: our waiter was shockingly present, yet felt invisible; this is the perfect kind of service! He was there if we had questions, needed refills, etc. but otherwise did not overcrowd our space at all. As well, since it was my sister's birthday, she was given a take home package of homemade pasta and cooking ingredients; a really, really nice touch!
For 4 people with cocktails, a bottle of wine, a few bottles of sparkling water, the food above, and a 20% tip, we paid $350. In my view, this is fair for the exceptional experience!
Would I go back? 100%, and I recommend you do too!
