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.
