Have been searching for classic Italian food for a long time in HK. For me, the essence of Italian food is to be simplistic with fresh produce. And, this place has done it!Visited with family and really loved how they have dishes made for specifically for sharing.500grams of buffalo mozzarella w/tomatos: Large dish of tomatoes to share between 6-7.

Visited with family and really loved how they have dishes made for specifically for sharing.
500grams of buffalo mozzarella w/tomatos: Large dish of tomatoes to share between 6-7. It's rare to have a restaurant in HK that serves organic beef tomato,cherry tomato etc with such generous portion
Butter Lettuce Salad: Accompanied with shaved parmesan and black truffle. Clean, simple dish that really allows one to enjoy the aromatic truffle.
1 Boston Lobster Linguine: Not a fan of lobster and it was too salty, chef had a taste and admitted too. Am glad, the chef cares about a customer's opinion though. Most restaurants just acknowledges your opinion and never actually taste what they have cooked afterwards.
1kg of Prime Rib: Chargrilled, cooked to medium with chargrilled vegs. Things can never go wrong with a lovely fresh US prime rib and it's modestly priced, will be having more of this soon!
Tiramisu: Classic Tiramisu but, would love to have a bit more rum in it (personal preference).
Overall, this place has generous portions for it's price. Service was friendly but, I went on a quiet Sunday evening. There's valet parking for $60. Great place for authentic Italian food with a cozy atmosphere. None of those fancy overpriced crap in HK where there's so many ingredients/foam/droplets that you don't know what you ate afterwards. Can't wait to have sunday brunch and have free flow prosecco.
