Knowing the type of restaurant Boccon Divino is we had high hopes, but based on the reviews we’re actually a bit worried.
Everyone has different tastes, and therefore by definition every dish will not be loved by both me and my wife. We ordered the onion soup, crusty bread, the ravioli, the Pappardelle, the beef, the crème brûlée and the chocolate tart. The restaurant added three additional Bonus courses, a black bread, a tomato soup, and a pallet cleansing sorbet . All were beautifully presented, obviously made with care, and flavored is a unique and delicate way. Portion sizes were decent and I left full. Flavor wise may wife really liked everything. I did as well except for a few exceptions. The beef tasted great and was incredibly tender but was a bit fatty for me, the lavender in the crème brûlée just did not work for me and the chocolate tarte had a bit too much “going on”.
A couple of other notes / opportunities for the restaurant. The note on the menu stating you must order two dishes was obnoxious and I believe unnecessary. It could be stated in a more pleasant way. Anyone who goes to that restaurant, knowing that the restaurant informed them of a 100 euro penalty for no showing the reservation has to know that the should order additional courses.
Secondly, we unfortunately had some very loud people in the restaurant at the same time we were there and not only did their voice seem to echo with every word, but they would not shut up. Not the restaurant’s fault but it hurt the very quiet vibe.
Overall, it was a great experience, and the restaurant lived up to the hype serving unique food with impeccable service. We did have drinks but no wine. Coat was 150 euro.
