Restaurant Italian restaurant

👍👍 First of all, be aware that it's pricey. I am not saying that in a bad way. I enjoyed my meal here. The restaurant has a calming relaxing vibe. The light is soft and the design minimalistic except for the huge fountain at the back. The waiters are attentive and friendly. As for the food, I enjoyed... People often mention taste,

    First of all, be aware that it's pricey. I am not saying that in a bad way. I enjoyed my meal here. The restaurant has a calming relaxing vibe. The light is soft and the design minimalistic except for the huge fountain at the back. The waiters are attentive and friendly. As for the food, I enjoyed the salad. Fresh crunchy greens with light tangy sauce. The octopus was well cooked with a nice chewy non rubbery consistency. The prawn in olive oil was superbly flavoured. Salty, spicy and underlying charred garlic aroma balanced well. Only thing is the prawns seems slightly under done. It's not raw but another half minute cooking would've made it perfect. The seafood stew / bisque is a little heavy. 3 pieces of soaked bread at the bottom and lots of seafood superbly cooked. The taste has a heavy tomato base but has a strong lingering seafood aroma. The clam spaghetti meanwhile could've been better I think. It seems underflavoured. Strangely when you taste the gravy by itself, it's nice. But when you eat it with the spaghetti, the taste becomes suboptimal. The tiramisu however was sublime. The bitterness, the sweetness, the perfect moist nature combines for an incredible taste. I fully recommend that you try this. In short, I enjoyed the vibe and the meal, short of a couple of small imperfection. Price point will mean eating only at occasions but not regularly. But as in any skill required product, price is a recognition of effort and end result.

    You can only go by appointment of fixed 2 slots (6pm & 8:30pm for dinner) To me it’s either too early or too late for dinnertime. Food taste wise doesn’t go with the expensive price. Ravioli was hard texture. The octopus salad only have a mere 2 strands of octopus. Seafood soup was diluted and tasted bland. Spring chicken was so so. Overall food was not as impressive as the review shown.

    Preview The atmosphere at the restaurant was nice, and the staff was respectful, making it a good experience overall. However, the food was a disappointment. Although it was represented eloquently, the taste was awful. The bread served was cold, and even though the appetizer tasted good, it was lukewarm. The main course, which was lasagna, had every other bite cold. It seemed like both the appetizer and the main course were reheated in a microwave. There are a few areas where the business could improve. Firstly, they should change the plates and cutlery for each new dish. Additionally, servers should avoid reaching over customers while they are eating to refill their water cups. Considering the price paid, which was over 170 MYR, the experience was not worth it. There are other places where one can eat at a cheaper price with better service. All that is being asked is for the staff to be educated on how to do things the proper way.

    The food is great! But the environment is too noisy. I was there for a family dinner at 6pm it was very crowded, the restaurant is almost full. The song selection is bad. With the noisy environment full with the guest talking, I think the restaurant should select a different song/music genre to play. Definitely wouldn’t recommend for first date or a romantic dinner when you want some privacy

    I can't say enough good things about this restaurant! The cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and incredible food combine to create a truly exceptional dining experience. You can taste that each dish is made with premium ingredients and is full of flavors. Don't miss the chance to indulge in this culinary delight! 5 stars!

    Celebrated my husband birthday here. The cheesy pasta with truffle is a good sharing platter for those who loves cheese moderately. Do remember to make reservation. They only have 2 dinner sessions. The 6pm to 8.15pm is suitable for people who do not like a crowd

    Wonderful place. The service was excellent, very kind waiters and manager. Warm hospitality. The food was impeccable, I wanted to try the whole menu. I had the bruschetta, the gnocchi with lamb, truffle pizza, I couldn’t find a fault in any of the dishes. Great cocktails too. I would 100% come back here and I would reccomended it to anyone! We were offered a free dessert for my birthday . 10/10

    Finally got some traditional Italian cuisine. The squid rissoto with King prawns was excellent. The lava cake was also excellent. The recommended wine was perfect with our meal. The service was impeccable. The only down side was New York price. No doubt will go back again.
