Sinfully italiano
Had read about this place on Times and when I saw the review that this place had better food than Fiorano, I landed here as soon as I could to savor what can only be called Bangalore's finest italian food!I am a big sucker for ambience and this 2 levelled restaurant stole my heart as soon as I saw the Victorian decor indoors, the terrace level looked like it would make a great place to be in at night.
Coming to the food, I ordered a Vegetarian lasagne that had a cheese crust so sinfully fattening and delicious that I was left wondering if I was indeed in Bangalore!My friends ordered seafood platter that seemed quite scrumptious.Something that deserves special mention is that I put together a mocktail myself, when I saw put together I told the waiter what ingredients I liked and he prepared a drink that was very very good!Finished my meal with an amazing lime gelato(the non dairy kind) and I couldnt have been more satisfied!
I definitely loved this place for its authentic italian food and its uber-European ambience, the one thing I did dislike was the fact that there were too many waiters hanging around the place which just made me feel a bit in the spotlight and hence an utter lack of privacy!Also I ve always maintained that in a classy restaurant, one must employ well spoken waiters who know the food well , instead just as is the case with every restaurant in Bangalore, we were waited upon by pushy waiters who smile too much without knowing the food too well.Get them rid of, and I would pledge allegiance to this place.
