"We passed by the restaurant about 17:00 and found the place and the menu to be very attractive, so we booked right there for dinner. We were absolutely disappointed! The only good thing was the wine (Carricante eruzione 1614, 28) As antipasti we ordered the burrata and the Tris di mare. What can I say, you can go to any supermarket in the country and get a better burrata, put it on a plate and bam! You have a better dish. This burrata (9) was bad, as it had been previously frozen and lost all flavor and creamy texture. The tris di mare (15) was an extremely poor mix of two fried prawns, two dubious skewers, and a tiny tiny fried fish. You get better on the street for less than half of the price. As main, we ordered a tagliata (15) and busiate with artichokes and Bottarga (15). The tagliata was alright, but overcooked and dressed with a balsamic thick sauce that nothing has to do with meat On the other hand, the busiate were a huge disappointment. Bottarga is precious product and supposed to be very tasteful. Well, I could not taste it, as all I tasted was something that seemed to be cream with cheap cheese and lots of salt (if I had bought a ready to eat sauce in the supermarket it would have tasted better). The pasta was overcooked and the artichoke in the dish was only the leftovers, the hard to eat leaves. I would recommend to anyone not to waste money here."

"A TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT AVOID FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR STOMACH AND WALLET!!! Never had a worse experience. As an appetizer I ask for a mussel pepper and they tell me that they call them exploded mussels , in reality they are not exactly similar, plus some salty things have arrived, bordering on disgust. I mentioned this to the waiter and from the response I understood that it was better for me to eat them, but I avoid the classic slipper as it is very salty. My son, on the other hand, always had mortadella, burrata and pistachio as an appetizer, the burrata was passable (it was still frozen), but the mortadella was inedible and in fact it remained practically all on the plate. Then the apotheosis, not seeing them on the menu, I ask if there were spaghetti with clams and they tell me that yes, off the menu, there are and also couscous Trapani style with fish, I ask what fish and the waiter tells me: fish , (I invite you to look for this typical dish and see what it is like. I opt for this expecting a rich dish and instead I get a mountain of just couscous and a red mullet fillet (approximately 3 cm x 6 cm) and nothing else, neither fish nor vegetables, to be accompanied with a very salty broth, which I like it was too reminiscent of the mussels mentioned above. Inedible. I point this out to the waiter, who tells me he will point it out. In the meantime my children eat two excellent pizzas. Bottom line, I only ate the mussels, with one dish that was completely backwards, the couscous, and one in half, I was expecting an apology or that they would at least offer me some explanations but instead nothing, and they made me pay for everything even for the single glass of wine . 2 pizzas 2 waters 1 glass of wine Plus the above €87 I never write negative reviews but this time I couldn 't refrain!!!
