Description
Starters like zucchini fries and octopus lead into pasta mains like short rib and lamb ragùs, creamy truffle pasta, and risotto. While the kitchen generally delivers, execution can occasionally fluctuate, with guests noting an undercooked vongole or an overly intense lamb flavor. Desserts feature tiramisu, crème brûlée, and the popular pistachio tart paired with vanilla gelato. The modern space maintains a neighborhood feel that works well for a pre-theater dinner, complete with attentive and impeccable service.
