    I had a wonderful time at Quartino. The food came at lightning speed and the service was excellent. We loved loved the Tuscan kale salad, you must try at all costs. The penne vodka chicken and veal meatball app were delicious but I found the fettuccini Alfredo to be very eggy and unpleasant. Our server Christopher was friendly and quick! The zeppole were cooked in old oil and were immediately noticed by all of us at the table. Their nojitos are yummy, I recommend the passion fruit. I will come back especially with these awesome prices!

    I say the food is the most authentic, flavorful, and perfectly captures the essence of Korean cuisine. The bossam and ttukbokki were some of the best I’ve had, and the selection of soju and Korean beers is top-notch. The atmosphere is lively yet cozy, making it a great spot for both casual dinners and group gatherings. The service was friendly and attentive, ensuring an amazing experience from start to finish. Big shout out to Fay!
