The atmosphere is great! The food is ok, expensive for what it is.

We got the caccio e pepe pasta (2/5), carbonara pasta (2/5), & the caprecciosa pizza (2/5).

For dessert we got the tiramisu (3/5) & the torta caprese (3/5)

The service was ok, we can tell the staff is still in training. Keep it up! :)

There is a lot of potential but the food lacks flavor. Would be back to test it again.

Le restaurant étant encore en rodage (pré-ouverture), je m'attendais à quelques petits pépins dans le service, mais ce ne fut pas du tout le cas. Service impeccable & attentionné.

Côté cuisine, assez standard. Ce n'est pas mauvais, mais rien pour nous faire tomber par terre. Les pâtes cacio & pepe étaient savoureuses, mais la portion beaucoup trop petite pour le prix. La pizza (mortadelle & pistache) était honnête & la portion généreuse. À noter la texture de la croûte : vraiment exceptionnelle!

Côté ambiance : comme nous étions en pré-ouverture, la salle était à moitié vide, donc difficile de juger. Belle salle & déco impressionnante, mais un peu froid.

Bref, un bon repas, mais allons-nous retourner, non.

Dernier commentaire : nous avons apprécié la réduction de pré-ouverture de 15 %.

Honnêtement, très déçus. Les prix sont très chers pour ce que c'est. Un plateau de charcuterie & fromages à 50$: Les saveurs étaient assez basiques, rien qui ne justifiait ce prix. Tous les plats sont environ 30$ & plus, même les pizzas. Nous avons pris deux plats de pâtes & c'était trop salé, nous n'avons pas pu les finir, pourtant la quantité n'était pas énorme. Les serveurs étaient aimables, mais l'un d'entre eux est sorti des toilettes sans se laver les mains. Une expérience décevante, ce qui est dommage, car l'endroit est très beau, mais la qualité de la nourriture laisse fortement à désirer, surtout pour le prix. Je ne recommande pas & je pense qu'il y a de biens meilleurs restaurants italiens dans le quartier.
