Customer Reviews
Absolutely phenomenal culinary experience. The food is always amazing - I've come on multiple occasions, over a few years - and you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. I had the ravioletto as my main this time, and it may have well been the best pasta dish I've ever had. For appetizers, we had crispy pork ear, bone marrow, and prosciutto wrapped persimmons; all were phenomenal. Of note, you really should make a reservation, especially if you plan to go for dinner, as it is very popular and frequently packed (and rightfully so). The only downside of how popular it is, besides the difficulty getting a reservation sometimes, is that it can be too noisy, especially on busy days/nights. But, overall, a spot that's not to be missed.
Second time here and the food and service were still as good as I remembered it to be on my last visit in 2021. This place is always POPPIN’! Family night, date night, girls’ night…..you name it, the ambiance fits. The food is always of good quality, very tasty and portions just right. Cocktails are really good, and service is always extra. Heriberto took care of us, and he was very attentive. Despite this being my second visit, we got a little lost. The restaurant is located in what looks like a commercial building. It is very well worth the visit though.
