    Wild boar ragu too rich and inauthentic with the addition of truffles which overpowered any wild boar flavor. Indifferent/distracted service for our key reason to go (the table side making of the tiramisu).

    Food is incredible! Authentic Italian food. Friendly staff. Service is great. The food just comes out really fast. Perfect if you are in a rush but would be disappointing if I came for a night out.
