“My sister, her friend from Florida, and I had lunch there today and Mario was a perfect host. Everything was amazing, the food delisioso, and the atmosphere charming. I will be be back soon for sure!”
“Everything was perfectly portioned, timed, and paired. The ambiance is the best you can ask for in an office building, and it was a special experience. Chef Mario has 16 years of experience in the front of the house, including as a sommelier, and 27 in the kitchen, and it shows! We made reservations via text a while ago for our anniversary. Chef Mario sent us the menu the week of the reservation to choose soup/salad and an entree, but the other courses were a surprise. We also had no idea what the price would be until we got the bill, but it ended up being $100/person.”
“Cannot understand the 5 star reviews. I chose the restaurant based on reviews, but for me and 2 family members it was a very poor experience. No pricing posted on menu. When asking about the cost, Mario said I wouldn't be disappointed?? We have modest budgets and were not prepared to spend over $40 for a meal that was drenched in a sauce that was not tasty at all. I couldn't enjoy any specific flavor of the meal. The flavor was awful. We ordered different items and each of us were embarrassed to tell this "highly reviewed chef" that these were the worst meals we have ever ordered at a restaurant. No exaggeration! The ambience was not there for us. We sat next to a large icemaker, lots of bottles of condiments, what looked like a deli counter and a coffee machine. What is cozy about that? The wait for our meals was about an hour and only one other table had guests that evening. A couple hundred bucks for 3 people for a sad experience.”
