Sorellina: what do users think?
Kelsey Alana Brooke Jones: The food and our server were great, but I would not recommend coming for a celebration. I went with my husband for my 30th birthday tonight and we had an 8:30 reservation. We were running 10 min late, and called to verify that was ok and they said it was no problem. When we arrived they said they needed to clean off a table, then 15 min later said the table just paid and it would be another 15 min - we were sat about half an hour after we arrived and I had to put my birthday balloons on the coat check for some reason. It didn’t feel like a celebration with the wait and policy against balloons which are the reasons I wouldn’t recommend for a celebration.

Legal LLC: Not very flavorful food. The vegan version of a pasta was just grainy tasting noodles in bland oil for $45. My table spent over $800 on dinner and most dishes were sub-par. The broccolini was mashed up like baby food. I've never had brocolini served like that. Seemed like standard, flavorless food in tiny portions arbitrarily overpriced. I will not be going back.The hostess, black hair in a braid on April 20th at 6:30pm harassed me as soon as I walked in the door. Very rude. All staff seemed very unhappy to be there.Vegetarian options: No good vegan options. Go elsewhere.Dietary restrictions: Not very accommodating to dietary restrictions.
Mai Lion: Great place for dinner.. food very good .
Marco Giannini: I thought the food was 4.5. Service was 4. And ambiance was around 4. I wouldn’t give this 5 stars. 5 stars are for something that really wows me.

divine Onyeme: Sorellina is a good fine dining option in Boston. Perfect for date nights or special occasions. The atmosphere is formal however, the service and food is of high quality.I enjoyed the Lumache pasta as an appetizer and the chicken and salmon dishes are superb. The sweet point of the meal was definitely the Cioccolato which is a must try. Overall great experience.

You will throughly enjoy your time there!

إبراهيم خطاب: Consistently one of the most pleasant, fulfilling, and wholesome dining experiences we have in Boston. Great hospitality, great atmosphere, great food, and consistent quality. Always introducing new variants and subtle twists that keep the menu interesting and keep us coming back.The family style is always an awesome deal for groups and the portions are very generous.Vegetarian options: Many of those!Dietary restrictions: They're very flexible and willing to accommodate different dietary restrictions.

Pedimos el paquete familiar y cada uno nos correspondió un pago de 120. Dolares, sin contar las botellas. Que si regreso, siento que no
Felipe Santiago: Cold tasteless food. Sticky floors.Server was nice and bread was hot and fresh.
Kelvin: Classic Decor. Main course 7 (out of 10), Bread 10. Service Impeccable.
Zachary Orsulak: My lunch salad included a bunch of raw chicken. I guess neither the person on the grill nor the person that sliced it noticed that it was cold and raw in the middle. I tried to be fair and reach out to the restaurant first regarding a resolution, but all I got back was a form response asking for the check number, the payment info, and a list of ALL the items that were ordered. This was a very large group order, so I don't have most of that information. Because the restaurant didn't care to reach out in person to apologize, I'm instead uploading the photos here. If you dine at Maggiano's check to be sure that your food is cooked. If it isn't, and you get sick, don't expect the restaurant to take it seriously.

Giacomo's: what do users think?
Ross Todd: My girlfriend and I popped in for dinner and had the best mushrooms I’ve had in years. Risotto was 10/10. The manager Svenya made the meal extra special with some beautiful Amaro. The meal was actually so good I forgot to take pictures and my date and I had to return for brunch.I mentioned I had to catch a bus at 11am and they opened at 10, the manager let us call our order in on the way with the food waiting when we arrived so I could be on time. Lovely family atmosphere, reasonably priced, attentive staff. Shout out to Tasha for being so on it.Tiramisu was bangin’.Instagram: @holycityhost
Alison Ryan: Recommended dishes Risotto Al ManzoMore
RY: Solid Italian place in the South End.
alice ma: Perhaps a true contender for the best Italian in Boston. Beautifully executed by head chef Jesus the culinary genius behind other exceptional Boston establishments Ilona and Kava. A well balanced yet diverse menu, al dente house made pasta, incredible flavours from the rich and balanced burrata, exquisitely tender Polpo, and precision cooked Tiger Shrimp. The staff were also an absolute delight.
Narik Zadikian: Recommended dishes Tiramisu, Roasted PortobelloMore
Jaime Arze: Very high prices for essentially whole foods pasta. I was very underwhelmed by the quality of their food for the prices they have set. Nobody minds paying a high price for good quality food but that is not what the experience was here. Glad they changed the name since they are not at all honoring the tradition. This is the classic South End gentrification we hate to see where fancy decor gets outrageous prices just because it attracts the hip crowd. I will say this, the service and staff are 5/5, very professional and on top of their game.
wilmar preciado: I recently visited Gigi, and I have to say, it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff and immediately felt at home.The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, with soft lighting and comfortable seating that made me feel relaxed and comfortable. And the food! Oh, the food was simply amazing. I tried several dishes from the menu, and each one was expertly prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients and bursting with flavor.One standout dish was the bisteca, which was perfectly cooked and had a wonderful balance of flavors and textures. And the bottle of Amarone was a perfect complement to the meal, with just the right amount of sweetness and a refreshing, crisp taste.But what really set this restaurant apart was the service. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. They even took the time to chat with us and make recommendations based on our preferences, which really made us feel like valued guests.Overall, I would highly recommend Gigi to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. The food, atmosphere, and service are all top-notch, and I can't wait to come back and try more dishes from the menu.
Jessica Alves: From beginning to end our visit to Casa Giacomo’s was amazing! Everything from the service, to the food, and the ambiance was top notch. Portion sizes were perfect, wine and cocktail list was great. We were so pleased and can’t wait to go back! This is a must visit when in the South End!Dietary restrictions accommodated None of the above …More
Elly Watts-Garrity: I had the absolute best time ever! All staff, but especially Matthew, were attentive, competent and kind. I will most definitely visit here again (next time with my daughters).
Ed Sharrer: My wife and I absolutely loved our experience at Casa Giacomos. It's a true neighborhood place, not touristy (but as tourists, we felt quite welcomed). Every bite from appetizers through entrees to dessert was just perfect. The tiramisu is not to be missed - an excellent execution of that dessert. The place is charming and the staff provides that difficult balance of elevated experience while still feeling warm and relaxed. Reservations are recommended and easy to book online. Truly a highlight of our weekend in Boston.
Kristal Cardone: A little gem, shines anew! My friends & I had a fabulous dining experience. Our food was delicious and service was excellent. Cameron was our server and he was a true delight - made the experience that much better.We had the Rucula & Caesar salads which were great but were both outshined by the panzanella salad. The sherry dressing on it was so good!For our entrees we had the chicken Parm, scampi & Bolognese all delicious and the pasta was perfectly al dente. I know some will ding this new incarnation for having smaller portions. I found them perfectly acceptable in size, and to me in line with a more refined dining experience. I was never gaga over the original place to begin with, and much prefer the new owners spin.We shared the tiramisu & chocolate mousse - both delish. Worth stopping in late night to enjoy at the bar with an espresso martini on another occasion!No complaints to be had! Will be back for sure, and I for one am very pleased to have this refreshed restaurant in the neighborhood. I loved the interior a little bit if glits with velvet benches, textured wall paper and gold accents, but warmed up with the white washed brick and wall sconces. I'm also thrilled with the fact they take reservations! It's an upgrade from standing in line for sure.
Cameron McGaffigan: The food and service were very good, however my party were seated 20 minutes after our reservation which was unfortunate.
Alex Fischbach: Unfortunately, it does not hold a candle to the original Giacomo’s in the south end. This was our favorite hole in the wall - cash only - mom and pop shop. Its character has been completely flushed out by new trendy green velvet chairs and sterile white brick. The whole charm of the original restaurant was the fact that it was run by an amazing family that wanted you to feel like you were part of theirs. It FELT family style with back to back seating, small tables, warm orange/red walls with beautiful murals and its overall causal and welcoming vibe. It’s such a shame… we’ve lost a staple to our neighborhood and it’s been replaced with yet another dark, trendy, loud, NY-soho-style restaurant.As for the food - super small portions, underwhelming & really overpriced (just go to the North end if you want to spend this amount of $$). We also found a hair in our pasta dish, which kind of sealed the experience for us.We live directly across the street & before the new owners took over, we could see a line wrapping around the block almost every weekend. I cannot say the same for the new restaurant - most of the time it looks empty?
Amanda Wright: Stay with me on this one, my boyfriend and I wanted to grab some dinner out tonight so I had made reservations earlier in the day at a completely different restaurant. Fast forward to 5PM. While I’m waiting for him to finish getting ready I open tik tok and a video of Casa Giacomos was the first to come up. I immediately did a google search and found that not only were they open, but they had open reservations..SCORE! The atmosphere is that of a cozy, old school Italian restaurant with modern vibes intertwined. All the staff that helped us were incredible and attentive, unfortunately I didn’t grab anyone’s name besides our waiter, Matthew, who like his coworkers was amazing. For starters we had the calamari and burrata. The calamari was fried perfectly, not overwhelmingly greasy. The burrata was moist and flavorful. The handmade pastas were exceptional. I had the carbonara and my boyfriend had the chicken parm. Authentic home cooked meal flavor is really what sets this place above and beyond. Portions were perfectly sized leaving room for dessert. We had the tiramisu, which like everything else, was nothing short of delicious. If you’re looking for a perfect night out, you need to come here!
Alex Angel: Very cute , great atmosphere. The branzino was amazing !
Andy Clark: Love Casa Giacomos - I've been twice since they opened. The first time with friends was just for drinks, which were very creative. The second time was with my fiancé for dinner and we thought the food was delicious! The staff were very attentive despite how busy it was. Really good wine list. We definitely will be back.
Fadi Samaha: Great food. Great staff.
Yana Ya: Another destination spot in the neighborhood from the owners of Kava Neo-Taverna and Ilona. In-house made pasta, charming and cosy ambiance, hospitable personal will make you want to be back very soon. Delicious bread already sets the tone to a great start. Order few appetizers to share plus pasta, pair with well crafted cocktail. Portions are just perfect to enjoy the variety of tastes.Roasted Portobello, Pasta Carbonara, Burrata, Gamberi All'Aglio won my heart!

Arianna Dines: Had an amazing experience here. The meatball app and Gnocchi a la Bolognese were both divine. I got the Shrimp Fra Diavolo and subbed in the gnocchi instead of spaghetti and it was so so delicious! Most importantly we had really good service. We didn't feel rushed at all and were able to enjoy a birthday dinner at a relaxed pace, which isn't always common in the North End. Definitely would recommend!
Sarah Townsend: Boston’s Little Italy has tons of dining options so it was hard to choose but Prezza was recommended by our hotel concierge plus several locals at Artu, (a nearby bar/restaurant that was lots of fun and had great drinks/apps). The food at Prezza was delicious. I had the chicken parm while my boyfriend had the eggplant parm. Servings were huge-enough for two rounds of leftovers-and the bread was also scrumptious. Ambiance was very nice and service was good. I definitely recommend this spot.

Tanya Chabot: The waiter, Paul was amazing the other night. Service was beyond exceptional and the food was top notch! Every time I come to Boston I have to eat here. Definitely a must try!
Ajith Vasudevan: One of the top 3 north end restaurants - in my book. They are really friendly and genuinely interested in making sure you have a great experience.Go for the veal osso bucco - it is outstanding. The saffron risotto and crunchy carrots pair so well with the veal that it’s a truly amazing taste, texture and aroma combination.Some of pastas are also spectacular- the egg yolk and cheese ravioli is a go-to for us.There are some interesting drinks on the menu and good wines.Strongly recommend the espresso martini - one of the best I’ve had.Dessert however does not match up to the standard of food here - it’s not bad - but the bar is set way higher by the mains and the sweet course underwhelms. Not a worry as in north end there are many ways to satisfy that craving.
Ben Shtuhl: Suuuuch cap (no cap on god). $18 for one piece of ravioli. Drinks terrible.
Rahul Amin: Food was top notch. Ordered ravioli and lobster ravioli, both were delicious. The drink was okay, could have been better. Overall the ambience was amazing.

Alexis Newman: The headline of this review is: GET THE PISTACHIO GELATO. It doesn’t matter if you’re full after all the delicious pasta. The gelato is perfect in every way - flavor, texture, accompaniments. The portion size is large, definitely enough to share between 2-3 people. The rest of the meal was well prepared and tasty. We tried the chicken liver crostini, the erbazzone, bucatini all’amatriciana, tagliatelle bolognese, and pappardelle with wild boar. Our favorite of all was the pappardelle. The food here is thoughtfully crafted and prepared perfectly.
Hunter Nemitz: Our waitress was very delightful and happy to explain and joke with us about the silly names for things on the menu. The food was fantastic, in particular the cherry gelato.

Andy Palmer: Giulia is truly one of the most exceptional dining experiences of my life. Michael is a culinary artist like no other.
Yulia Sidi: The food is nice, however totally overpriced. The service was pretty good, but on a slow side.
Andrew Hills: The other reviews have covered the amazing food. They're absolutely right. What really stands out to me about Giulia is the next level service from the whole staff. It was very impressive, a real fine dining experience. The pacing of meal and drink delivery was perfect, which really defined the experience for me—we always had just enough at our table for the moment, and they never missed a beat. I have yet to see any other restaurant in the Boston area run a ship as tight as this. We couldn't stop talking about it for the rest of the night.Vegetarian options: About a third of the menu is vegetarian, with good variety. The wait staff will highlight them if they know you're vegetarian.
Liz Harty: We reserved the pasta table for a big family dinner. The family style menu was amazing. They accommodated allergies and one vegetarian diner and they loved their plates also. Each dish just as great as the last - and there was so much food. Sometimes tasting menus have really small portions but not here. Cocktails and wine were also perfect. Ambiance was fun and lively.
Amna Ali: Loved this place! Great hostess and waitress that really took care of us and our allergies/dietary restrictions. Rarely been to a place with staff so knowledgeable 😍
Alex Zhu: The service here is outstanding, but the food was seriously lacking. Tried three pastas and they were all underwhelming. As a pâté lover, I was surprised to find that the chicken liver crostinis straight up tasted like vom. The best dish of the night turned out to be the prosciutto, which required the least effort to prepare. All of the microgreens used were limp. Been looking forward to trying this place for years, huge let down for sure.
pika: The chicken liver bites were alright.Tried 3 pastas, they were all way too salty, including the famous wild boar pappardelle. The daily special pasta with mussels and razor clams etc. had sand inside the shellfish, which is understandable for dishes with shellfish, but still a disappointment for restaurants like this. The portions of the pasta were small, which was great since they were all so salty that I really would not want to eat more.Liked the deserts, especially the raspberry sorbet that came with the panna cotta and the minty taste of the panna cotta itself. Pistachios gelato is also good.Service: they got our order wrong once. And the serving of the food is a bit slower that ideal. We had to wait for about 5 min between courses of dishes.Overall: desserts are good. Bites and appetizers are fun, but pastas are just disappointing and boring. Not worth the hype or the money.
Alecia Breeggemann: We signed up for the bar wait list knowing it would be up to two hours. Had a drink across the street and got in after an hour as others had canceled. It was amazing. And we are picky when spending more than our standard restaurant budget. The bar service was great. The bartenders were knowledgeable and attentive. We had the cauliflower soup, the beef tortelli, a seafood special, and the cheese plate. The stand out was the cauliflower soup. Incredibly creamy with flavorful accompaniments. Everything else was wonderful as well. The total after tip was about 200 with two (excellent) cocktails and two wines. More than we generally spend but well worth it, even taking into account the 3.5 mile walk from downtown.
T. Z: The food is good. For antipasti I had erbazzone it was impressive. Portion is small tho for its price.Recommended dishes Antipasti …More
Dana Blackman Brown: Gulia was an amazing experience. We started out with a ricotta and spinach pie (tbh it was underwhelming), and our mains were rich and delicious. The real star of the show was the dessert. The affagoto rocked our world. I would say the pasta was great, but not earth shattering. It’s a treat to have great Italian food on this side of the River. That being said — the North End has spots that definitely beat Gulia.
George Esper: La comida es excelente, pero demasiado caro. Gastamos 245 dólares entre 4, solo pedimos 4 platos principales y 2 entradas. Nos cobraban cada recarga de gaseosa.
Saul Lustgarten: One of the best italian places in Cambridge, the home made pasta is delicious, great atmosphere and drinks.

Nat Tangpipith: Love this restaurant! Made reservation for dinner at 5:30pm and despite long line when the restaurant open, we were promptly seated. Our waiter is friendly and food came out fast. Great quality ingredient, flavor combination, and fast/attentive service. Good place for family, friends, romantic night out, and many more. Glad we had a chance to visit this gem in Boston! Note: Warm Semolina Cake highly recommended.
Laura Perry: Excellent food. Amazing service. Staff able to address a food allergy with confidence!
Mark Miller: The steak was delicious as was the parppadelle. They have a great bar and make a great Toronto.

BASILE - Fine Italian Kitchen: what do users think?
Darrell Stam: Freshly made pasta with generous amounts of seafood and rich sauces made the meal outstanding and worth a visit. This was our first time here and it didn't disappoint. We were seated right away and were able to linger over our courses. The creme Brule was rich in flavor and smooth in texture. A great way to end our meal.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Vanila Creme Brulee, Rigatoni Bolognese …More
Jess Desmond: I have an odd allergy that is nearly impossible to avoid. Their food is so freshly prepared, I could have almost anything pepper-free (except the pepper-based dishes for obvious reasons)!Dietary restrictions: They managed to make almost everything pepper-free!

Tomaž: Average food
Amy Franz: The staff was friendly and the cocktails were good. The appetizer of “cured meats and imported cheeses” was more like Kraft cheese squares and lunchables with Ritz crackers - no olives. Seemed odd for an Italian restaurant. Entrees were good but overpriced. I don’t think I’d go back.
enrique ortiz: Fine!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More
William Mui: The food was subpar at best. For $30+ a dish I had high expectations but the food can't even compare to $15 places. The music and atmosphere is also very off for Italian food. You can find better Italian restaurants anywhere, just save your money and time.Food: 1/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 3/5 …More
Vincent Papa: It seems like they are having an identity crisis. They don't know if they want to be an Italian restaurant or Indian. Food overall 4.3 out of 10, drinks 1.7 out of 10. Over priced, and can think of 10 different restaurants better food and drinks for 1/3 of the cost
Jeffrey Lambert: Great food and wine. I've been here several times and keep coming back.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Lamb Chops, Rigatoni Bolognese …More
Lizmaritte Matos: Had an amazing time. Everything was fresh and tasty! Alejandro was a great server. Will definitely be returning !!
Josh Callahan: Worse old fashioned I've ever had, the annoying temporary bartender used mostly lemon juice. Yes in an old fashioned. He then cleared the bread before we were done. While making one of our 18 dollar drinks he knocked it over, recovered it and just topped it off with lemon juice instead of starting over. The food was average at best as well.

matt t: What a shame. This place had every reason in the world to be fantastic and it was nothing but a colossal failure.The poor hostesses were the only good thing about this restaurant. I feel bad for them. In what world is your general manager absent on an understaffed night? Extremely poor leadership.The staff was completely overwhelmed and clueless. Food was missed and what did come out was inaccurate and cold. Wine was not the years featured on the menu and the waitress had no knowledge of anything.There's no reason to go but just extremely poor leadership. One of the worst run restaurants I've ever seen.Do better and hold your GM accountable.

Mario's Restaurant: what do users think?
PJ Bakhtiar: Overall:Great spot for Italian food. Cozy space with nice staff and service.Food:Appetizers:We started with stuffed mushrooms and also decided to order the lobster ravioli as another appetizer. The stuffed mushrooms are really good. The "stuffed" is like a stuffing consistency, which is good. Very well seasoned and savory. One of our favorites. The lobster ravioli was good, but not out of this world. It came with 5 large size pieces.Entrees:We ordered the chicken parmigiana and chicken limone. The chicken parmigiana was very good and a large portion. My wife asked me to share it several times. It essentially became her dish. The chicken limone was good. I liked it, my wife didn't like that the chicken was fried. I thought it was good. Both entrees came with penne and sauce which were tasty and complimented the chicken entrees well. They also included a side salad. The salad was really good, but I'd ask for a touch less dressing next time.Dessert:Amazing! The tiramisu and cannoli were both incredible. The tiramisu was one of the better ones I've had (I AM from Atlanta, so take that with a grain of salt if you're from the NE and go to Italian restaurants often). The cannoli was good, the ricotta was creamy but not runny. It's very rich, but very flavorful.Drinks:We got aperol sprtiz, red sangria, and cappuccinos. All were pretty good. The cappuccino wasn't out of this world, but it's a nice touch post dessert.Service:The service was great. The staff was very friendly. They helped explain a couple of items and were attentive enough but not overbearing.

Christopher D: I give this place a perfect rating because it is top tier in Boston. I've had better but I travel a lot. I would definitely recommend however the reviews saying this is the best Italian ever are a little exaggerated. I've had better in SC, FL, and TX.

David Kiatch: We didn't realise this restaurant was nearbyish to our Embassy Suites and even when we arrived here there was nothing to suggest an authentic Italian restaurant. However the owner was lovely and we could see she had pride in providing great customer service and naturally great tasting food. We both had the Chicken Parmigiana which was superb. Just a bit a time constraint meant we couldn't have a dessert.

SRV: what do users think?
Ross Todd: Mom and Pop shop attention with a James Beard taste. Went for my besties Bday…I would make this my Tuesday night spot if I lived here. Completely seamless from beginning to end. I think every person working touched the table and carried a sense of grace and kindness. Cheddar biscuits that will make you wanna slap yo mama. NA drinks that got me lit. Beet salad with some kinda perfect crunch. Very greatful. Also…the GM. It’s is rude to stare y’all, but damn 🔥🔥🔥🖤🖤🖤Instagram: @holycityhost
Ava French: SRV is an exceptional Italian restaurant that offers an unforgettable dining experience. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and inviting, and the food is simply outstanding. The dishes are beautifully presented, and the flavors are perfectly balanced, making each bite a true delight for your taste buds.What truly sets SRV apart is the exceptional service provided by their staff. From the moment you walk through the door, you are greeted with a warm smile and a friendly welcome. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and the wines, and they go out of their way to ensure that your dining experience is nothing short of perfect.The pasta dishes at SRV are truly exceptional, and they are made fresh in-house every day. They offer a wide variety of pasta dishes, each one more delicious than the last. The wine list at SRV is also outstanding, featuring a wide variety of Italian wines that are perfectly paired with the food.Overall, we highly recommend SRV for anyone looking for an exceptional Italian dining experience in Boston. The food, service, and ambiance are all outstanding, and the restaurant is truly a gem in the city. You won't be disappointed!
Jimmy Goddard: Great space, lovely food, such friendly staff. Loved it!
Marco Ugolotti: Nice place and good service but limited menu. Price is on the average high end. The pasta plates didn’t meet the expectations… flavor was good but the risotto was over cooked ($45) and the other pasta (angel hair) was definitely not the correct kinda of pasta to use and it was also over cooked. Thanks to our server… we got some extra desert. Bottom line …. I came here 10 years ago … and nothing has changed too much. The cucine is not “original” from Venice and the actual Italian alternatives in Boston are now better than SRV.
Gwin Zhou: Great tasting menu! Great variety... tho it makes me feel super full in the end...Food: 4/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More
Max P: Food was overall great, and but the tiramisu took the cake (I don’t even usually like tiramisu-but we got it anyway at our friends insistence). They do have a frequently rotating menu which keeps things fresh. The only issue we had was with service- couldn’t help but noticed that we were initially seated in the corner near the toilets with another Asian couple, and the waiters did seem more chummy with the other patrons too. Hopefully it’s just me reading too much into jt, because this would be a great place to come back regularly to.

Cecile Braun-Jones: Beets antipasti was the best thing we got. The grapefruit ricotta salad didn't do it for us, it was lacking in flavor and the textures didn't work. Tried the lobster pasta, we were excited about it but ended up not finishing it. Mostly pasta and nothing else.Tiramisu was Huge and pretty good.Negroni tasted nice, kiwi drink was very sweet.Service was nice but a bit pushy and clearly trying to get us to leave asap (there were at least 6 open tables ) which didn't make us feel welcome.It had been a while since I was there last, it's changed a bit.

Proddy Sukcharoen: Black Garlic Risotto🖤 with spring onions, goat cheese, and vermouth🍸.My first time eating a dish with black garlic🤩! Was very excited upon ordering it. The texture of the risotto was rich, creamy, with hints of balsamic and soft spice. The aroma reminds me of ponzu sauce coated in butter Portion was super generous it fed me for two meals!!Bigné: strawberry, basil, crema pasticcera. Super rich in flavor and aroma. Tastes like a mixture of cream puff and cake.
Mina K: Wanted to come here for a while and finally made it, well worth the wait.Loved the food!Unfortunately ate most of the dishes before taking a photo but everything was really good!The duck cappellacci are delicious, the ambiance is beautiful and I’m so happy I tried this place.
Kevin George: We got the fall tasting menu, which was relatively new for the season, and it was very disappointing. They also like to keep their menu a secret so you don’t know what dish you’ll be getting next. We asked for no pork, but as a result found that 75% of the dishes had cod, which was strange and didn’t really work.
Zac Wolf (Zac Wolf Photography): Loved photographing a wedding here. Incredible staff, space, and food. I can't wait to work with the SRV team again soon!

Margaret Hui: We finally try this place, our favorite dish was pork dish with polenta. We tried two pasta dishes we like the pasta with lobster better than the duck raviolis with lack of sauce & duck flavored. The service was great.
