The Michelin Guide's Opinion
Sandwiched between a laundromat and a medical center in a Buena Vista shopping center, the neon-pink exclamation mark that glows above the front door is impossible to miss. Surprising is certainly an apt descriptor for Chefs Luciana Giangrandi and Alex Meyer’s destination. Servers say the food is Italian, but is it really? Fried potato skins cradling stracciatella arrive crowned with caviar; while beef tartare is embellished with a tonnato-style sauce and garlic-shallot crumble. There is plenty of pasta, like the tagliolini nero tossed with king crab and vin jaune that's served unexpectedly chilled.The staff seem to be having just as much fun as the chefs in this charming, forest-green nook that fills up as soon as the doors open.
