| - When the big eyeball emojis are staring at you from the table, take that as an indication to order some wine.
Other than that, listen carefully to the specials your waiter tells you about. There are some winners there that you should take note of.
Our dining experience here was excellent, mostly due to our awesome server who we all pretty much were crushing on in a 90s sitcom kind of way. He was funny, charming and overall, on top of his game.
I went a little bit out of my normal lane and ordered the Squid Ink Linguine alla Chitarra. Didn't really think I could go wrong with squid ink and shellfish, but must not have read through the description carefully enough and to my surprise, came in a red sauce. It was tasty and made sense with the sausage also in there, but pretty much me and everyone at the table were a little surprised. (Looking back at the description, it's not completely clear but I should have asked.)
My friends ordered the scallops and risotto, which I believe was one of the specials. One bite of it gave me food envy, so if it was on the menu I would definitely re-order that again for myself.
Overall, the small plates were a highlight for me, with the BBQ Octopus and Burrata as the two standouts of the night for me. Obviously, there are just enough for a few bites each if shared, however small but mighty definitely applied to both.
