Certainly not made with reggiano grana but the cheaper kind. The calamaretti alla Luciana could have tasted great had the strained tomato been from riper tomatoes and not dressed with dry herbs. The primo sale was grilled well, but it cooled very quickly. The caprese was definitely disappointing. Again, dried oregano thwarts the experience. Caprese requires fresh basil and and equal amounts of tomatoes and mozzarella. The tortelli were okay, but just like the spaghetti meatballs dressed in low quality passata sauce with the ever present dried oregano. The meatballs were tasteless. At the end of the meal, I walk away with a mouthful of dried oregano. We were hungry, so we ate everything, but I suppose this place caters to tourists with little or no knowledge of Italian cuisine. Such a pity. But expensive, and the overall poor quality makes one wonder why.

Tried the pasta with seafood/ clams and although it didn’t taste bad, wasn’t good either. Slight food poisoning a few hours later, wouldn’t recommend to anyone. Prices don’t match the quality.
