Reviews
The charred prawns were super fresh and flavorful. The forest mushroom ancient grain focaccia was hearty and autumnal. The Chardonnay vinegar used with the Broccolini gave a really good tang to complement the char on the vegetable.
We also ordered the spaghetti with clams special. It was an interesting version which included saffron threads. Super tasty.
Would absolutely return to repeat several dishes and explore more of the menu.
Our waitress, Maria, was exceptionally welcoming, kind, and attentive throughout our visit.
I began my meal with a Rob Roy, which was crafted to perfection. For an appetizer, I followed Maria’s recommendation and tried the special Focaccia of the evening. It featured a delightful pesto sauce with pieces of andouille, and it was absolutely exquisite. For my main course, I selected the Black Garlic Skirt Steak, accompanied by a side of charred candied rainbow carrots. The steak was cooked to a flawless medium, and its flavors were utterly delicious. The carrots had an ideal char and were bursting with flavor. To conclude my meal, I ordered the panna cotta, which, unfortunately, was quite underwhelming, especially considering the superb quality and attention to detail evident in all our other dishes.
Overall, the experience and the food here were amazing. I extend a huge thank you to Maria, who made our experience truly wonderful and enjoyable.
Service was mixed, Alejandra took care of us politely, though nothing stood out as exceptional. This was still better than the other server working that day, who sadly did not seem suited for the role.
The food was good, but again, not outstanding. For the Long Island prices charged, I expected a bit more in both quality and service. Overall, it was an average experience, falling short of the high expectations set by the restaurant’s beautiful setting.
We arrived hungry on a rainy Friday night and ordered a quarter of the menu, then returned the next day to enjoy brunch al fresco.
The dinner standouts: local fluke crudo + oysters, mushroom focaccia, casarecce, crispy cannellini beans, seared duck, fruit pie. And, I could’ve dined solely on the gourmet tins and been happy; pick whichever sounds appetizing and you can’t go wrong.
For lunch, more focaccia (!), Burrata, and their bucatini cacio e pepe is among the best pasta you’ll ever have.
I have some dietary restrictions and the chef helped make it a incredible meal for us. Grazie mille!
All the food we ordered was too salty or too spicy or overcooked.
Couldn’t even taste the steak , it was all covered with spices , sauce and unchewable. Usually when something is bad you try to cover it with spices/sauces. Had 3 bites and sent it back.
We were missing 2 steaks, burrata , drinks constantly.
Do not recommend for a dinner, maybe just drinks at the bar.
The food was stellar. The tinned items were unique to try, and while they weren’t a hit with the whole party, they were really interesting and enjoyable nonetheless.
The pasta, small, and main plates were amazing and everyone loved everything we ordered. Each dish is well crafted with a stand out flavor profile. Even the veggies were exciting and delicious. And the cocktails were awesome as well.
Overall our experience was exceptional. We would return in a heart beat.
Great spot, will be back for sure.
5 stars!!!!
