Food is delicious! Ambience is reminiscent of classic trattoria. All the menu items (as far as I know) are prepared by hand - from the pasta noodles, to the pizza dough.
Servings are only DECEPTIVELY small. If you're thinking of eating an order of pasta by yourself, make sure you're really hungry! Pizza is cooked in a brick oven, as per classic Italian tradition.
Ate here on my birthday (which fell on a Lenten Friday - catholics are encouraged to avoid meat on Fridays of Lent), and was in the mood for good pasta. Wasn't too excited to eat pizza but the Margherita was the star of the meal! They served it with chili honey, and it was incredibly fresh and good on the palate.
Service was decent. We came at a really busy time, but they did compensate for the longer-than-usual wait with complementary chips. They surprised me with a cake too! Worth it!
My current go-to Italian place. They give an authentic experience with carefully thought of dishes inspired from different regions of Italy. Dishes are simple and made with fresh, premium quality ingredients. Some favorites:
*Cacio e Pepe salad - it’s just romaine lettuce with pecorino cheese and black pepper dressing and balsamic vinegar but it’s sooo good
*Carbonara - spaghetti with guanciale and egg (no cream, just how a proper carbonara should be!!)
*Pollo al burro - tuscan butter chicken with rosemary—their version of a popular dish in Florence. Pro tip: ask for bread and dip it in the excess oil/butter 😋😋😋
*Ragu - fresh tagliatelle with ragu bolognese)
*Bianco - garganelli with prosciutto and peas in truffle butter and cream
I just wish they had more dessert options and more seating capacity! The place is always full, so be sure to make a reservation ahead of time.
The place is usually crowded so it’s best to reserve a table. You can definitely tell that their pasta is fresh. We ordered their bianco pasta, which was one of their best sellers, and we loved it. The truffle taste was not overpowering, it was just right. We also tried one of their new pizzas, and it was okay. Their food is kinda pricey (around 700pesos per dish) tho but it’s still worth a try. 👍🏻👍🏻
