A pretty nice Italian restaurant with a view to the bay. It's quiet and the music isn't loud, so it's really nice for a calm meal. I went there for a date after a long day and it was great for that.
As for the food, we had the inferno pizza that was supposedly spicy. It wasn't, for me, but the average greek would definitely find it spicy. The thin dough was very good and the toppings were well balanced, without covering or overpowering each other. The pizza was cut in 6 slices, so it was perfect for 2 people that don't eat much for dinner, which brings the price per person way down. I cannot comment on the drinks since we just had water.
On to the desserts, ignore everything, take the lemon pie. The top is glazed meringue and when that dissolved in your mouth and the lemon cream hit you, it was just divine. The dough was crumbly as it should be and the pistachios added that extra kick to make it special. They have 3 standard ones and one daily dessert, but it really doesn't matter, take the lemon pie. Trust me, I'm an engineer.
Service was very good and they answered all the questions we had about the ingredients. My gripe with the building is that it looked like a redecorated coffee shop or hotel lobby. Overall I will go again since I want to try their pasta and more of...
Read moreReally conflicted about this place. Don't get me wrong though. The food service and atmosphere are great. Not amazing but good enough. My problem and thus confliction is that they recently changed the menu (Jul23). The new menu is ridiculous, they try to be gourmet with weird recipes so some people feel intrigued but unfortunately the combination of ingredients is too complex for me. I'm fine with having some gourmet dishes... just leave the classics alone!. They don't lose the points for the menu though. I might be tough but always fair! They lose points because any request we had to alter an ingredient or type of pasta was shut down hard! I'm sorry your chef might be the best but if I want a small alteration or something very simple off menu (at a time where we are the only table) i expect to be accommodated. Shutting down reasonable customer's requests is just bad attitude. My advice is one, bring back the old menu and introduce the new dishes slowly not all at once! Two, stop the delivery service or have it only at times that you're not busy, the delivery guys have to wait very long for pickups and the customers also, three, be open to customers requests! If I want spaghetti or penne, it is because that's the...
Read moreBest Italian in town hands down !
Food was extraordinary! Service was really nice and made you feel like you are at a high end restaurant. The waiters were really kind and were willing to mention extra items not written on the actual menu.
A lot of unique choices of Italian food, we tried the Marco polo starter which was fresh focaccia accompanied by two dips one ricotta with honey and one based on caramelized onions. Next we tried the cacio e pepe pizza which came with a mix of cheeses and dried fig. Both plates were absolutely mouthwatering.
There was a huge list of wines both available by glass or bottle but we asked for cocktails and we tried their Aperol spritz and limoncello spritz- both truly Italian.
Next time we're in town we will visit again to try more pizzas and pastas as well as some of...
