Esperienza fantastica. Cena eccellente, i piatti scelti erano tutti davvero buoni. Menzione speciale per il risotto con burrata, gamberi e lime: una esplosione di freschezza e gusto. Baccalà mantecato da primo premio (e ne ho assaggiati tanti in vita mia!). Personale con un senso dell’accoglienza davvero fuori dal comune!

Purtroppo il cibo è stato al di sotto delle aspettative: ai calamari con crema di finocchio mancava una spinta di sapore, nelle tagliatelle alle capesante il pesto di pistacchio era predominante e lasciava un sapore dolce, gli gnocchi baccalà e pere croccanti erano slegati dal loro sughetto; il branzino ci ha convinti. Carta dei vini non all'altezza con prezzi troppo alti, soprattutto per i vini di fascia bassa. Personale di sala attento ma da migliorare nel servizio del vino e del rimpiazzo mise en place.

Excellent service. Nice location. Maybe lacks a bit of character and dynamism. Often restaurants have a hustle and bustle. This didn’t, I think because only 1 staff member. Cld liven it up, have a few chewier dishes. Maybe have a bar for drinks?

The Baccala and the melanzane dish were very good as well as the tiramisu. Unfortunately the calamari with vanilla sauce and almonds didn‘t work out - at least for me. Fegato alla venezia had not much flavour and the small and very few liver cubes were drowned in a tasteless, watery polenta. That was a real disappointment.
