Finally tried the viral on the back of all the hype, and the loud red space ate. A been there, done that type of place.
The Fried Burrata ($26++) was the standout of the night. Fresh burrata from Puglia, fried crispy and served with carbonara cream, guanciale and lemon zest — the kind of opener that sets expectations high.
The Spaghetti Carbonara ($32++) is the classic Roman take — egg yolk, pecorino, black pepper — and they’re generous with the guanciale, which I liked.
Our second pasta was the Pappardelle Ragu ($32++), drenched in a hearty osso bucco beef sauce with crispy guanciale and parmigiano.
Portions run on the smaller side across the board, though they offer two half portions of pasta for an additional $10++, which is a good way to try more. Decent by all means, but nothing outstanding.
For pizza, we got the Porchetta 2.0 ($36++) — a white pizza topped with roast pork, potato rosemary, mozzarella and pecorino sauce. Frankly, it didn’t quite come together. The chilli crisp condiment on the side was a pleasant surprise that saved the whole dish.
The Truffle Tiramisu ($18++) was a little dry and fell short on both the coffee and alcohol. The truffle felt more like a garnish than a complementing flavour.
The atmosphere is genuinely fun and worth experiencing. But the food didn’t quite match the energy of the room.
[Verdict: SatisfacTerry ✌🏻]
