| - The porchetta focaccia sandwich was absolutely phenomenal. Very tender roast pork with an extremely flavorful sauce that really went well together. The focaccia bread was toasted a little too crisp (almost like a bruchetta), but I still enjoyed it very much.
The crudo arctic char was also really delicious. Like a sashimi, the char tasted very fresh. Didn't taste the squid ink salt though. Again, the bread that came with it was overly crisp and too hard for my liking.
The merluzzo black cod was very tender, but felt it could have used a little more flavor. The portion was also very small, so didn't think it was worth the price.
The arrosticini ewe meat skewer wasn't that special. Tasted like a regular kafta skewer, and didn't notice any special texture or flavor of the meat. Two tiny skewers for $10, wasn't worth it.
The coniglio alla milanese rabbit loin was a disappointment. Didn't expect it to be deep fried! The meat was very thin and didn't taste like rabbit. Still tasty, but was like eating a veal schnitzel with an egg.
The polpette di capra goat and ricotta meatballs was quite nice. But my meatball was still cold inside and had to send it back. Server gave us a brand new dish, but had to wait quite a while for it to be re-cooked.
The porchetta, crudo, and polpette di capra was definitely worth trying, the others, I would pass on if I had to order again.
The wait to get our table was quite long and we had to share our table with another group. Too loud to have a conversation without yelling so the dining atmosphere wasn't that great.
Our server was very attentive and professional. The chefs however could use a little more training and professionalism. Serving cold meatballs is inexcusable, they should know when the food is properly cooked. Also, on numerous occasions, I saw them wiping their nose while preparing the food bare handed. Another chef was eating some of the food while plating the dishes. This type of behavior should not be happening, especially with an open concept kitchen where the customers can see their every move. Sometimes it's better to just not know what happens in the kitchen...
Although I really enjoyed a couple of the dishes, given the long wait time, loud and uncomfortable seating, and unprofessional chefs, it will likely be a while before I decide to come back and give this restaurant a second try.
