I asked the dame whether the special of the day — beef ravioli, was good. she said it was excellent. So I ordered the beef ravioli....When it arrived, it was 6 ravioli, warm, on a small dish, without garnishing or any side. the bark in each ravioli was perhaps a teespoon. the taste was “love”, we say. it was almost tasteless. probably because it was just some flour and water that covered a tiny part of the meat. at a price of $24, I paid $4 for each ravioli. I have starved. I have an additional crust brot, but no olive oil more than the one tablespoon in a small ceramic dish. I'm not a fat guy or a big eater, but after that I had to stop eating. I noticed that the place was full of people, so obviously no one else shares my feeling of value and quality. but I would never go back. I wish terroni all good on the world, but I would be a little concerned that sometime people could switch to the spaghetti factory.

I noticed that one of the other tables had tee light candles, so the waiter asked if he could bring candles to light our table. we got one, so I had to use my handylight to read the menu. No one else seemed to complain about their meal, but I ordered a pasta dish that came cold. I sent it back and all the others were almost finished eating their evening when I got back my meal, which happened very bland and tasteless and not rewarding eating. my only positive comment is that the waiter was very pleasant and did a good job.

I chose the vegetarian option of several grilled...veggies served on a large charcuterie board, there are a large number of points in relation to the presentation. the taste was not there. no spice, dressing, sauce, dip. only simple grilled vegetables. Apart from that, the remaining meal times were wonderful, like the ambiente in this restaurant. I would definitely return, but would skip the veggie option.

My wife is from Italy, and even she was blown away — which is saying a lot. Everything we ordered, from the Carpaccio di Manzo to the Spaghetti al Limone and Caprese di Bufala, was bursting with fresh, authentic flavour. The ingredients were top-notch, and the execution was flawless. Easily a 10/10 on the culinary front. Now, the not-so-great part: the seating arrangement was extremely tight. We were just a couple out for dinner, but the tables were packed so closely together that I literally had to turn sideways and apologize to other guests just to get into my seat. There was absolutely no sense of privacy or intimacy — we could hear every breath and word from the couples next to us, and they could probably hear ours. It felt more like communal dining than a romantic evening out. To make matters worse, the temperature inside the restaurant was uncomfortably hot and humid. Within 10 minutes, I was ready to leave, and probably would have if not for my wife convincing me to stay. One other thing that caught my attention — while the restaurant proudly emphasizes its authentic Italian identity, I couldn't help but notice that everyone I saw working in the kitchen appeared to be South Asian. This isn’t a complaint, but more of a curiosity given the branding; the food clearly speaks for itself, regardless of who's behind the scenes. In short: come here for the food, without hesitation. But don’t come expecting a cozy, private, or relaxing dining environment — especially if you're hoping for a quiet dinner for two. Would we return? For takeout or a quieter location, absolutely.

The cacio e pepe had the right amount of black pepper and the pasta was cooked to perfection. The complementary bread was good but the olive oil for dipping was sort of bitter, very off-putting. However, the food comes out in about 5-7 minutes after your waiter puts the order into his handheld computer. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $70–80 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
