The staff at is amazing—A+ all the way. They’re super accommodating, friendly, and make you feel well taken care of. We had the wagyu Bolognese, and it was incredible. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was rich and flavorful, with the wagyu beef adding an extra level of indulgence. The crab salad was fresh and light, with the perfect balance of citrus and herbs to bring out the natural sweetness of the crab. For the main course, we shared the Large Seabass with Tomatoes, Capers, and Potatoes, and it was outstanding. The fish was flaky and tender, with a crispy skin, and the tomatoes and capers added a nice tangy touch. The potatoes tied it all together with a comforting, hearty feel. I can’t leave out the oysters—they were so fresh and briny, easily some of the best I’ve had. And the lobster pasta? Hands down one of my favorites. The lobster was juicy and generous, and the creamy sauce made every bite heavenly. This is now one of my go-to spots. The food, the service, the whole experience—it’s all excellent. Highly recommend!
