Finally got to try this restaurant & it definitely surpassed our expectations. Fresh, high quality ingredients & bold, memorable flavours in every dish. It's a cozy, warm Italian vibe but at the same time feels elevated & worth your money, very far from a simple plate of pasta you can just make at home. We didn't get to try the cocktails or dessert but we will be back! I've already recommended this place to friends & family.
Un repas vraiment délicieux. Tout ce que nous avons mangé de l'entrée au dessert était délicieux. Un établissement que nous avons découvert & sincèrement apprécié. Nous y retournerons sans aucun doute.

Let's start by saying I hated it!!! BECAUSE I know I'll be dreaming about every dish for as long as my ADHD allows. We had three courses & dessert, each with an Italian name I won't attempt to butcher, so bear with me. There is Campari everywhere. Not super important but I was like wow.
Ok what was eaten:
Endive Salad: Perfectly balanced flavors with a kick of tangy vinaigrette. Simple, fresh, & so well done.
Pasta with Veal Meatballs: This one. The smellllllll of the tomato sauce instantly transported us to our grandmothers' houses on a Sunday afternoon. Full-blown nostalgia moment & obviously absolutely delicious.
Fish with Pesto: PERFECTION. Nothing more to say.
Molten Lava Cake: 10/10. Paired with some raspberry goodness. DID NOT disappointment, pure joy.
In short, every plate was simple yet layered with thoughtful, intentional flavors. Nothing felt overlooked. You can see into the kitchen if you get close enough, I always like that.
I genuinely think this is the perfect spot for a small group of friends who like sharing dishes…you get to try more of their fantastic menu. It's very open. Looks like they could accommodate a giant group comfortably.
Birbante was incredible! We were a group of six girls & shared everything - & honestly, every dish was amazing. We started with the doppia bruschetta (absolutely delicious!), the burrata, & the endive salad - all so fresh & full of flavor. Then we had a risotto & a pesto pasta, both super tasty & perfectly done. Our waiter was amazing - he explained the menu so well, was super generous, & made the whole experience even better. We finished with 4-5 desserts & devoured every bite. The place itself is beautiful - the décor is super cool yet cozy. 100% recommend!
This is THE spot for classy & cozy dining. The staff was super friendly & gave us great recommendations! Dozens of Campari cocktails to choose from - I was pleasantly surprised by the Negroni Svegliato with coffee. We shared every dish we ordered (& we ordered a LOT) & everything was excellently prepared. The standouts of the night were the bruschetta with n'duja - a spicy sausage I'd never tried before, the lamb pasta, & the STEAK. Plus, the sheer variety of pasta shapes was mesmerizing to behold! Make sure you've got plenty of focaccia to soak up all the tasty leftover goop. & for dessert, you really have to try the pistachio-encrusted ice cream, it's the perfect finale to a memorable meal. Great spot for a date, or ideally a double- or triple-date so you can try more dishes!!!
From the moment we arrived, everything about this restaurant was outstanding. The ambiance is warm & inviting, with nice décor & a cozy atmosphere that instantly makes you feel welcome. The service was impeccable, Mateo was attentive without being intrusive, friendly, & genuinely passionate about what he does.
From the starters to the desserts, each course was perfectly balanced & absolutely delicious.
In every sense-food, service, & atmosphere-this restaurant should be on your list for your next night out. Highly recommended & definitely worth it!
I want to start by saying the place is very nice decorated & the service was very friendly!
However, i'm a bit disappointed with the food since I had high expectations for this place, it was wasn't bad but it wasn't wow either. We asked if it was good to share between two people & we were told yes, but after 2 entrees, 2 mains & 2 desserts, we were still hungry as the dishes were way smaller than expected. l
To start, we had the Doppia Bruschetta, which was extremely salty & Crudo (this one was good). As main, we had Risotto N'duja e Burrata which was good, & Linguine which was alright. The highlight was the tiramisu, the tortino & the aperols spritz.
