Despite the breathtaking view of Rome, the food and service at Mirabelle was far from impressive. We were seated and greeted warmly but after that, the service was largely impersonal bordering on cold... We started out the evening ordering cocktails. One drink was forgotten so we waited an extra 10 minutes to be able to 'cheers'. I asked about the details of the chef's cheese platter, our server didn't know so he left to ask the chef. He never returned with an answer. After this we ordered our selections from an unclear menu with inconsistent pricing displays.
One thing I will say is that many little extra aperitif items were brought to the table for an interesting presentation however none were very tasty.
The main dishes we ordered:
Ravioli Carbonara with asparagus... 6 dry raviolis, no sauce and one tiny sliver of asparagus. Not good, small portion. Lackluster and not delicious- very disappointing.
Next, Linguini with pistachio and pesto... the linguini came in a red sauce, with two pistachio nuts and two tiny dollops of 'pesto'. This was not a pesto dish. We were very confused. Didn't eat this as it arrived cold.
Finally, one of our orders was the lamb dish. It was completely forgotten, leaving our guest with no meal - We waited a while and finally just started to eat because the 10 minute wait turned into twenty. We shared our tiny portions with him. We were all finished with our meals when he was finally served an over cooked lamb dish.
To top it off, the €120 wine we ordered was not poured when we were served. We waited far to long to receive our wine that was chosen to be paired with our meal.
All in all, I would say, order a drink on the balcony but don't waste your money on the food.
