Second day opening review--- Julian Serrano--- keep in mind with openings, the menu always changes. Concept is small tapas style to share but more Italian instead of Spanish
Wow is what I can say about this restaurant. I will say it looks a little out of place in Bellagio (replaced Circo) because the decor is super modern contemporary inside and out. Their main pattern design is a overview of the streets of Milan and it has nice open space. They offer indoor and outdoor seating(patio maybe 10 tables so limited) inside has floor to ceiling windows and they have private dining room and chefs table.
On to the food. FYI the following food has a formal Italian name to which I do not know them haha.
We had a little of everything. To drink try the cucumber mist cocktail. Very nice and refreshing.
The must try entrees fare the short rib, red wine risotto, lobster gnocchi, and ahi tuna crudo. All of which are pretty self explanatory but so delicious. I liked the sauces of their plate and said Mmmmmmmm to these selections.
I also had a cured meat flatbread, quail wrapped prosciutto, branzino, a spicy sausage bruschetta and a warm pastry with honey and cheese topping.
For dessert try the lemon bar for a fruity choice or the hazelnut chocolate dessert for the chocolate choice. (FYI- we ordered all desserts except the flourless cake as they ran out)
Since it is new we tried almost everything. I throughly enjoyed this place. Again keep in mind that what I had may not be available to you. My seat outside was in the most perfect location on the patio thanks to Albert and Brian our waiter did fantastic in asking appropriate questions to customize a menu for us. I look forward to doing this again.
