4/10

We booked a table because we were staying at a nearby hotel and were impressed by the many positive reviews. Unfortunately, our experience did not meet expectations. We ordered from the Chef’s Choice menu - Osobuco with rice. The meat, however, appeared to be pork, while Osobuco is traditionally made from beef, and this was not indicated anywhere. The rice was also far too al dente. The Tartare had an unpleasant flavor as well. Costata Di Manzo, patate al forno - no flavor on the meat, no flavor on the potatoes as well. The only dish that was reasonably good came from the kids’ menu - “Switzerland with fries.” Desserts were another disappointment. The tiramisu was topped with Nesquik, which feels unacceptable, especially when you’re in Italy and expect a proper version of this classic dessert. The crème Catalana was even worse - reminiscent of a Dr. Oetker mix with artificial vanilla and a texture closer to soup than cream. Overall, we do not recommend this place.

Good morning, we are sorry that your experience, from what we read, was not entirely satisfactory. That said, we would just like to clarify that risotto with ossobuco has never been made with pork in the history of traditional cuisine, but rather with veal. We are open to criticism if the dish was not to your liking, but it is important to know the correct ingredients first. Thank you very much and have a nice day. Warm regards, LGI
