   2 entrate: ok, non speciali 2 spaghetti alla bottarga: bottarga amarognola e spaghetti scotti, malgrado ci fossimo raccomandati sul fatto che li volessimo al dente. 1 flute di champagne: ossidato a 38 dollari! Il tutto a 220 dollari. Gran presa in giro e ristorante sicuramente NON degno di rappresentare la cucina italiana nel mondo. Fatto per i polli come noi che dopo due settimane hanno voluto assaporare un piatto di pasta. Sicuramente, nessuno del personale italiano l’avrebbe mangiata. Probabilmente lo chef o chi l’ha preparata non era neppure italiano e, spacciandosi per tale, prima di far uscire un piatto del genere, ci si accerta che sia corretto! Delusione totale… senza parlare della flute di champagne, ossidata, marca sconosciuta, a 38 dollari, altra presa in giro! 2 entrées: OK, not special 2 spaghetti alla bottarga: bitter roe and cooked spaghetti, despite our recommendation that we wanted them al dente. 1 flute of champagne: oxidised at $38! All for $220. Great mockery and a restaurant definitely NOT worthy of representing Italian cuisine in the world. Made for chickens like us who wanted to taste a plate of pasta after two weeks. Surely, none of the Italian staff would have eaten it. Probably the chef or whoever prepared it was not even Italian and, passing himself off as such, before bringing out such a dish, he makes sure it is correct! Total disappointment... not to mention the champagne flute, oxidised, unknown brand, at 38 dollars, another mockery!

   This was first first and last dining experience at this restaurant. We were seated in the basement which felt like a basement, very different from the main dining room on level one. The meal was extraordinarily expensive. $500 for two salads, two pastas, desert, two cocktails and a bottle of sparkling rose (not champagne). The meal itself was mediocre. The salad, undistinguished, the pappardelle not very flavorful. The dessert was the best course.

   they accomodated us even though we were late for our reservation. Staff was very attentive and helped serve us quickly to meet our theater time. Food was hot and very good--altho a bit pricey. Extras like appetizer and biscotti for dessert a nice touch. we would come back again!

   Perfect on all levels. However there is a weakness in the service perhaps due to being overcrowded. A chic restaurant does not bring 4 desserts without spoons. Even when asked twice the spoons did not show up. When they did , we had 2 spoons for 4 desserts. That is a noticeable oversight in an elegant restaurant.
