Description

The kitchen focuses on noodle dishes like squid and shrimp pasta, oxtail fettuccine nero, and a creamy spaghetti with roe, with diners noting that pastas are the restaurant's strength. The staff frequently take the time to explain the menu details, which can be enjoyed at an inviting bar counter. However, the dining room has occasionally been flagged for hot indoor temperatures, and some reviews point to a hit-or-miss fusion balance in the dishes.
