I recently visited this restaurant and had an amazing experience. The oysters I ordered were incredibly fresh and delicious, truly a treat that made me feel like I was by the coast. My favorite dish was definitely the Zuppa di Mare, a perfectly seasoned seafood broth packed with flavor. The service was also outstanding; my waiter, César, was very attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and top-notch service. I'll definitely be back!

We were seated on time, and the decor was lovely. We started with a fresh salad, and we enjoyed a glass of wine that was a current special called Adaptation. The wine selection was wonderful. The steaks were cooked and seasoned to perfection. We shared buttery whipped potatoes and glazed carrots. Excellent service. For us, this is a special occasion restaurant, and it was superb!
