Trattoria Bertamè

My family and I were absolutely shooked by how good this place was. We didn’t have high expectations going in not knowing if this place was good or not, and so we ordered off the reviews posted. We were given a free vegetable soup for tasting (not sure if they do this everyday tho) and it was alright, since it’s free we weren’t complaining. As the food came out, first we were impressed by the presentation, everything was plated beautifully and was a feast for the eyes. We started with the grilled octopus which he recommended, and he was right - it was cooked absolutely perfectly. The octopus was fresh and tender and charred beautifully. We also had the ossobuco - and it did not disappoint. The saffron risotto was well seasoned as the veal was well braised. The mushroom risotto was probably the least impressive among all - but nothing a little salt won’t fix. The highlight of the meal was definitely the grilled meat platter. I’d say the chicken was definitely overshadowed by all the other heavily seasoned meats, but the sausage, pork and beef were cooked sooo well we couldn’t stop going at it. I’d like to commend the service as well as our waiters were very attentive and polite. In a nutshell, 10/10 would recommend.
