Such a delicious Italian spot in Soho. The lighting was dim, the interior was decorated very nicely, and the service was great. I came here around 6:30 with a party of 8, and we sat upstairs by the big window overlooking the city streets. For appetizers, we started off with the Come a Capri, Melanzane alla Parmigiana, Focaccia al Tartufo (or truffle pizza), and Carpaccio de Manzo... They also come with table bread with salami and some spread. The Come a Capri was burrata and tomatoes which was light and refreshing. The Melanzane alla Parmigiana (eggplant parmesan) and beef carpaccio were also pretty good. The truffle pizza was amazing. The cheese was creamy and the truffle flavor was strong. If you like truffle, this is the move.
I got the Branzino for my entree which was delicious. Perfect size for one person. It came with some broccoli, cauliflower and black rice. The crust was so flavorful and crunchy, and the fish inside was very tender. The black rice had a lot of flavor as well, which I did not expect but loved. I heard the sea bass special was also delicious, so I would recommend both these fish dishes.
I also had a bite of the truffle risotto, but honestly, I did not like it at all. It's such a heavy dish and WAY too rich and creamy. My mouth felt sticky after eating it, and you literally can't eat subsequent bites without having a palate cleanse with water or some greens. I also couldn't really taste the truffle flavor since the risotto and cheesiness overpowers it. Other than that, everything else was great.
