This was one of the most disappointing meals I can remember having in the last decade. We’d been here before and had loved it, so this time we recommend it to all our friends and made it the last meal of the vacation. Nobody can say the restaurant is charming, it’s horrible, but the food in the past was so fantastic it more than made up for that. Unfortunately, we were served the most lack-luster, thrown together, and sad meal. The quality of the ingredients was nothing like in past visits. The pasta this time wasn’t made in house (maybe they ran out?) and they substituted the previously stellar ingredients for cheap replacements. The beef carpaccio, one of the most expensive dishes on the menu, was garnished with chopped salad mix, and the frutti di mare pasta, a house speciality and the most expensive of their pastas, was served with overcooked prefrozen seafood and boxed pasta. The dessert was terrible, and then to add insult to injury we’d ordered three pizzas to go and when we got back to the hotel we realized they were store bought cheese pizzas with the ingredients particular to the type we’d ordered placed on top. On top of everything, it was one of the most expensive meals of our trip. We felt terrible for having dragged our whole party there. We have no idea what happened to this great place that we had previously raved was some of the best Italian food we’d had outside of Italy. Really disappointing.
