Went to this restaurant for an early dinner with husband, and was instantly impressed with the decor. Very stunning. I particularly love their huge fans and how they use Italian yellow pages to cover some part of the wall in the toilet.I don't really remember the names of the dishes we ordered. But for the appetizer we had bruschetta and some mussels, classic pizza for the main dish, and a cheesecake for desert. Bruschetta was lovely - very crispy with nice, refreshing tomatoes topping. Mussels
I don't really remember the names of the dishes we ordered. But for the appetizer we had bruschetta and some mussels, classic pizza for the main dish, and a cheesecake for desert. Bruschetta was lovely - very crispy with nice, refreshing tomatoes topping. Mussels were not bad, but were quite bland for my taste. Pizza was massive - they mean it when they said it was going to be table-size. Very nice presentation, looked very appetizing, but again it was also too bland. Husband said the dough was not fresh - he suspected it was frozen. My biggest dissapointment was the cheesecake, as I'm a big fan of cheesecakes. Was so excited to see the size of it (it's HUGE - maybe enough for 5 people) but was instantly dissapointed as the biscuit was soggy it wasn't so creamy either. I was wondering whether they actually made the cheesecake themselves or just bought it somewhere else and put the strawberry or mango sauce on top of it :-/
We paid HKD 700 in total including tips. The staff were responsive and nice, so we thought they deserve tips even though we were charged 10% service charge already. But for the food we had, honestly I think it was quite overpriced. I mean, I know the size of the size is huge and all that. But if that was what I was looking for, I would have just gone to Paisano's.
I read one of the reviews which mentions that the tables were too close to each other and I second that. The lady next to our table did actually knocked the bread basket on our table when she passed as there was not much space.
Not sure I will come back to this restaurant. Not the food was unbelievably terrible, but with the price they charged us on the food, I think I can get better and tastier food elsewhere. Sorry!
