This was our second visit to this restaurant, returning after a year with high expectations. We had been told that the menu had undergone changes, but in reality, it remained virtually identical to our previous visit. Not necessarily a bad thing—unless you were hoping for something new.
We started with the Brooklyn Burrata and the carpaccio. Both appetizers were outstanding: incredibly fresh, beautifully plated, and packed with flavor. The seasoning was spot-on, and the accompanying sauces added a creative and well-executed twist. It was a strong start that set the bar high.
For our main courses, we ordered the crispy chicken and the roasted halibut. The chicken dish was overall a hit—crispy skin, tender and juicy meat—but it fell short on seasoning. A touch more salt would have elevated it from good to exceptional. The halibut came with an artful presentation, nestled among vibrant peas, but unfortunately, the flavor didn’t match the visuals. It was a bit bland and underwhelming despite its polished appearance.
We also ordered a bottle of Ca’ Furlan Prosecco, which was fine—light and refreshing—but after a quick lookup, we discovered it retails for about $10. Being charged $56 for it left a bit of a sour taste. A 2–3x markup is standard in restaurants, but a 5x increase feels excessive and borderline exploitative.
Service, on the other hand, was excellent. Attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the night.
All in all, a mixed experience: high marks for presentation and appetizers, but the mains and drink pricing could use some fine-tuning. Would we return? Possibly—but we’d go in with managed expectations and maybe skip the wine list.
