Ascione Bistro - Broad Channel

The beet salad is one of the best things I have put in my mouth. Have never had a bad dish there. The service was weird and slow but I think it was because they were down a server. They comped my drinks to make up for how long it took to get them. That really was a one off usually get fantastic service.

Brunch here is a steal compared to their dinner menu with delicious items and the option of $18 bottomless mimosa. I went for the pasta and the prosciutto burrata: basil pesto brunch gnocchi (replaced w linguini, delicious, flavorful tagliolini (fragrant truffle flavor, noodles not el dente linguini carbonara (weakest of the three pasta prosciutto burrata (delicious, cant go wrong, had a piece of plastic in it When I told the waiter that there was a piece of plastic in the salad which I chewed on and almost swallowed (it was the cap of their sauce bottle , the waiter took it back to the kitchen. We waited a long time the manager. Another waitress came around ask us to pay and we told her what happened and that we were waiting for a response from the restaurant, she looked us like we did smt wrong and didn?t share another words and just walked away. The guy in the table next to us saw what happened and offered to vouch for us (thank you! . Long while later manager came showing us the bill and suggested 50% off the item that had plastic in it. I was shocked that he tried to bargain at all and request that at least the item should be comp. He countered and asked we enjoyed the food which was not the point here. I simply gave him the card and told him that i loved the food but having plastic in food is not a dismissible offense and it?s his business decision to make. He ended up taking the item off the bill but the experience was unpleasant overall. I love the food and I wish they just apologized for the mistake, at least took the item off the bill without making me countering them at all.

Absolutely fantastic service, food, and drinks! This place is a true gem! If you haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for? We celebrated our newfound freedom from Covid, and this spot was just perfect for the occasion. The staff made us feel welcome and at ease. The food was amazing, and being there with friends made it even better! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Cheers!

We had an excellent brunch! Although we didn’t have a reservation, they were able to accommodate us without any hassle. I enjoyed a delicious gnocchi topped with a poached egg and pork belly, paired with a cappuccino. My partner tried the breakfast burger with Italian fries, which was also fantastic. Although I didn’t capture it in a photo, the burger and fries were wonderful. This place is definitely a must-visit in Hyde Park!

The service was excellent, and the food was outstanding! I ordered the gnocchi, and it was incredibly fresh and flavorful—definitely some of the best gnocchi I've ever had. For dessert, I indulged in a chocolate cake that was rich and absolutely delightful! The atmosphere was lively and enjoyable as well. I would definitely recommend this place for a date night in Hyde Park.
