We will be talking about our dinner at Mucca for a long time! Culinary experience was perfectly executed & the service was top notch. We thoroughly enjoyed the Chef's Tasting Menu & the Bordeaux. Mucca easily became one of my favorite restaurants! If you are in the area & are looking for a special treat, this is your place!
J'ai littéralement TOUT adoré! On a pris le menu dégustation pour 2. Tout était exquis. Simple, sans fla fla, mais oh! de qualité. Ça fait une éternité que je n'avais pas mangé dans un resto qui vaut vraiment son prix. Le chef sait vraiment comment nous épater. Le service était parfait, les drinks aussi, l'ambiance.Enfin des vrais pâtes, faites à la main qui goûtent le ciel & qui sont parfaitement Al dente. La viande parfaitement apprêtée.... J'étais inquiète quand j'ai vu qu'il n'y avait pas de sauce dans l'assiette. Cependant, dès la 1e bouchée, j'ai compris qu'une sauce aurait été super flu... La viande fond dans la bouche & chaque bouchée de chaque plat est une explosion de saveurs purs, simples mais exquis! Merci pour ce beau moment tout simplement parfait.
Was really excited to like the place, has been on my list for a while. Good vibe on coming in, nice waiter, but the owner firmly (but politely) refused a pretty easy ask to let 3/5 of us order the tasting menu, & order a la carte for our vegetarian & pregnant friends. She admitted that there was no problem for 3 people to order a tasting menu "but you booked for 5, so you can't sneak it that way." Her restaurant, her rules... but you don't get service points for arbitrarily limiting customers from what they want. We followed the owner's recommendations on ordering, but 4/5 of us left quite hungry, even after adding an extra dish. The appetizers were very good: original & sizeable zucchini flowers, a nice salad, textbook burrata. The steaks were both well cooked but heavily over-peppered; & the pastas the waiter recommended we double up on were totally bland. We left most of them, & we mentioned to the owner that this dish wasn't terribly good; she said okay but charged us for it. Also okay, fair enough, but again, you don't get service points for that. The cocktails were solid, the two bottles of wine were both good - we got solid advice there. Again - just too bad we left with a bad taste in our mouth. Could have easily been a great night. We went next door for dessert.
Karine & the support server were delightful & accommodating right from the time we walked into the door. Very helpful with the choices of wine as well as her suggestions for the meal. We shared a cowboy steak & it was cooked to perfection. Juicy, well flavored & well accompanied. The mashed potatoes were equally delicious & I was tempted to order a second portion. The room was lively without being over bearing & just the right level of music to be able to carry on a conversation. We will definitely go back with more friends & soon.. Good work!!
The food was fine, there was nothing notable about it. Besides the portions were pretty small & overpriced. For example, we got the ca$20 tuna-asparagus salad that had a grand total of 4 asparagus 😂
A rare thing to find a place worth 5-stars across the board. Service was attentive & friendly, & the plates very well executed. The whole experience was fresh & simple, but sophisticated in flavour, texture, & visuals. They also make an excellent negroni :)
