Walked by on my way to Chinatown and took a look at the menu. I thought there was a fixed price menu available for $20, so I decided to try it based on a conversation with a coworker the day before. The fixed price was not available Grrr. Would have been nice to indicate that it was a lunch offering only.
Appetizers
Soft shell crab - 2 battered and fried crabs were good. Not really worth the $24. 3.5/5
crema di zucca - mushrooms with a squash puree. My wife said it was good and would get it again $18
Main
pappardelle with beef brisket - pasta was cooked well, but I was not too hot on the brisket. Very meh dish. 2/5 $24
tagliatelle - My wife said it was ok. Again pasta cooked well. 3/5 $24
Service wise, it was just ok. My water glass was never empty (love that!), but we were never asked if we wanted cheese or pepper. The table beside us had MUCH better service. 3/5. We usually tip 20-25%+ but could not justify that for the service we got. Left a minimal 15%.
We eat out a lot and are always looking for new places. Tutti Matti was a disappointment especially how my coworker was saying it was a go to place for her and her husband. For $115 (with tip) I've had much better food and service. I won't be back.
