    Amazing spot and great food. The wild boar ragú pasta was a bit salty. The spicy lobster capellini was amazing. We also tried the octopus agridulce that’s definitely a must you want to try. Parking is a little tough there’s valet but 2 out of the 3 stations said they were full. Ambiance is magnificent and the service was good at first but then our server left and I was waiting for a beer for so long that decided to not have it at the end- it never got to the table The place is beautiful and perfect music volume to have nice conversation.

    I understand it was Art Basel week, but the service was exceptionally slow. We had to request bread service, which arrived 25 minutes after we were seated—and unfortunately, it was stale. We also had to flag down the server multiple times for drinks and water refills. That said, the food and ambiance were fantastic and definitely worth noting.

    The entire staff was kind and hospitable from The hostess team to the waiter. I appreciated that they were able to accommodate my request to be seated upstairs. My mother and I had a wonderful meal and the food and service was impeccable. This was my third time dining here and I will be sure to come back in the future.

    Dinner was amazing but went for a birthday, and saw pervious dinners received a birthday dessert. We were given our check and wasn’t asked if we would like dessert, felt rushed out and the restaurant wasn’t even that busy.
