Incredible wood fire cooked steaks!!! The center cut filet was cooked and crusted to perfection! Prime ribeye was flavorful and cut great. Pizza was crispy, sauced perfect, and cheese forward, best Roma style I’ve had outside Italia!!! Major recommendation for Amalfi Llama, a unique blending of Patagonian & traditional Italian cuisine!!!
