"We started with a mixed greens salad, a burrata salad, and polenta topped with a medley of sautéed mushrooms. The salad was fresh, featuring baby greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a light dressing. The polenta was a standout: crispy on the outside and warm and gooey on the inside, perfectly complemented by the sautéed mushrooms.
The burrata salad was decent but nothing remarkable. It featured a few medium-sized pieces of burrata on a bed of lettuce. I would have preferred a more creative presentation, perhaps with tomato slices and fresh basil, but it is what it is.
My wife ordered the pappardelle pasta with meat sauce, and it ended up being our favorite dish. It was hearty, flavorful, and well-prepared. I had the risotto with seafood, which was quite good. The challenge with risotto is achieving the right texture; undercooked can be crunchy, while overcooked can be gummy. This was cooked perfectly, and the red sauce accompanying the seafood was very tasty.
Our friends do not eat meat except for fish. They enjoyed the risotto, and she was very pleased with her choice. Her partner had fusilli with garlic and olive oil and was very satisfied.
Overall, our experience was excellent, and this little gem offers great value. I will note that it can get quite loud when they're busy (which seems to be the norm these days), so be prepared to raise your voice to have a conversation. We're definitely coming back!"
