   I really don’t write bad reviews. I like to give restaurants the benefit of the doubt and generally don’t like to have their record tarnished by what might by a singular “off” night. That being said, I felt the need to share what my experience was here, as, at their price point, it just seems wrong to have certain aspects of the dining experience be that far off. In terms of the good: the hosts were lovely - they asked if it was a special occasion (it was - a milestone birthday celebration.) The bussing staff / table runners were also great - diligent, attentive, knowledgeable as they explained the dishes. Our waiter was also quite lovely and attentive - at least during the first half of our dinner. The second half we felt a touch neglected. The appetizers (Mercato salad and stracciatella) were fantastic. Genuinely would order either again. Now for the not so great: all three of the pasta dishes we ordered came out cold. As in not even lukewarm. We ordered the white bolognese, the seafood pasta, and the risotto. The white bolognese was the best of the three dishes though wasn’t really spectacular. The seafood pasta was painfully over-salted. All three of us tried some then decided we couldn’t get through it without a struggle. The risotto was also over-salted, though much less severely than the seafood pasta. We then had the sea bass, which was fine. Again unremarkable.. Far from the ranks of the “oh that’s good” fish I’ve had at restaurants lately (and at 48 dollars for the plate no less.) While from Nashville originally, I now live in Manhattan. This restaurant is charging slightly more than Manhattan prices for their dishes. I think to do so fairly, I expect something great.. or at the very least nothing to be terrible. Had someone asked how the pasta dishes were, we would’ve told them. After this experience, I’m afraid I would never go back to this restaurant. It felt like a massive waste of money. And at that price point, you’ve just got to deliver better.

   A great experience. Gabrielle was a perfect server, attentive and witty. Thomas was a great, down to earth sommelier. Definitely ask for a recommendation no matter your knowledge of wine. It is expensive but I do recommend the gnocchi, it was literally the best ive ever had. The steak tartar was unique and delicious. Try the white bolognese, it is amazing. You will not be disappointed if you order the lamb. Do not miss dining here!

   Having our anniversary dinner in the kitchen was very special. Everyone was very attentive and professional. The chef actually spent some time with us explaining the menu and how the kitchen works. It was a great experience!

   When I go out to eat, I primarily go for the food. The food was simply not very tasty. The service was great but the food was rather bad. Thank you!

   This is our family’s favorite restaurant. We’ve been here during Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons, and this time for our anniversary. Everything is perfect; we love their food, cocktails, and delicious desserts.

    The atmosphere of the restaurant was really nice but the food was disappointing. Started with the focaccia which wasn't focaccia it was bread. I lived in Italy for 3 years so know the difference. I ordered the lamb with the polenta side and they were good (lamb was a little dry). My daughter got the bolognese which was really liquidity so she ended up eating the sauce with a spoon. My husband had the risotto which was okay.
