Overall nice food but for a high end restaurant the service was let down by the following. One waitress dropped the knife on me. At the same time she spilled a bit of food on my expensive top.
Rather than hurrying to give me a bit of cloth to clean up, she was tidying up the rest of the table and picking up the cutlery from the floor instead as if nothing had happened. There was no sense of urgency or genuine apology. After waiting for a few minutes, I spoke to the manager to ask for some cloth to clean up with. Five minutes later, she finally came back with a wet cloth.
A different waiter told me that we could order half portions of pasta dishes. And so we ordered TAGLIOLINI NERI CON CRUDO DI TONNO, BURRATA E PISTACCHI. When the bill came, the price was definitely much more than the 50% of the menu price. I asked the waiter whether it was half the price and he said yes. I ended up paying anyway. I checked the bill later and it turned out to be much more than the 50% of the price. It's a bit misleading.
Don't believe when the waiter tells you that pasta portions can be served in half portions because in reality you end up with half the amount and instead pay about 70%.
We had the starters which were octopus and the tuna tagliolini. They were well made and tasty.
The main which was the monk fish was quite underwhelming and rather boring after a few bites. (The waiter recommended this dish)
So my overall experience is a mixture of good and bad.

The vibe of the restaurant is really nice, perfect for date night or a romantic dinner. The food, I find it quite average compare to the price. The ingredients are very fresh and top quality but the taste is quite generic, salty and nothing special. My spaghetti dish, the noodles are a little too firm to be al dente. In general, this place offers excellent service and good quality food but I just have a higher expectation when it comes to the taste especially for a restaurant like this.
The restaurant is located in a very nice area in Berlin, very central and well connected. The staff is very attentive and friendly, offering a very nice service. The food was very good, but the star of the show for me was the bread they serve with pasta. It’s simply fantastic.
Overall a nice experience and well recommended!

Hervorragendes italienisches Restaurant. Wundervolles Gebäude in der Friedrichstraße mit absolut gelungenem Ambiente. Das Essen ist sehr lecker und perfekt zubereitet. Das Tiramisu ist eine absolute Empfehlung. Der Servie könnte nicht besser sein. Jeder Wunsch wird mit einem Lächeln erfüllt. Gerne wieder!
Höherpreisiger Italiener, manchmal muss es das sein. Jacken werden abgenommen, der Stuhl zurecht gerückt, Probierschluck vom Wein. Sehr gutes Olivenöl zum Brot, da schmeckt man den Unterschied.
Essen in angenehmer Atmosphäre. Qualität 1A. Lange nicht so ein gutes Filet gegessen. Gute Weinauswahl.

Service was perfect, food incredible and ambience chic and impeccable.
Expensive restaurant but they deliver what is expected and more. We were so happy by the end of the night.
Fine dining at it’s best.

Der Service war äußerst zuvorkommend und stets freundlich. Das Essen war perfekt und auf den Punkt gegart. Das Ambiente mit gedimmtem Licht sowie der Weinwand passen sehr gut zum restlichen Restaurant. Der Service konnte sich merken welcher Gast was bestellt hatte und legte ohne zu fragen das richtige Besteck dazu. Ein Kaffee-Fleck auf einem Hemd wurde durch den Kellner in Kürze herausgezaubert. Das beste Essen und Service, den ich je genießen durfte!
