| - I came here for a friend's birthday dinner. Despite the large group, the service was pleasant and quick.
I started off with fried calimari. It was pretty good but what I expected. The portion size was pretty generous, pieces were crisp and there wasn't an excessive amount of batter.
Then I had the Insalata di Funghi, a salad with grilled mushrooms, baby arugula, and balsamic dressing. Again, the salad was good, decently sized but also within expectations.
For my main, I had Ravioli ai Funghi, which was highly recommended by the waiter. It was OK. It was savoury but didn't really have much of a punch. Portion size was within expectations (a bit on the smaller size) but I didn't have mushroom in my stomach at this point (pun intended).
Given the energy put towards creating a sophisticated ambiance, the WTF moment was going to the washroom. I felt like I was warped into the bathroom of cheap Chinese diner. It was OK, just really weird.
Admittedly, I went in with low expectations but I was pleasantly surprised at how decent everything turned out.
Overall: decent Italian food, out of place washroom.
