We happened to stumble upon this restaurant after searching for a pasta place. It was highly recommended by a blog post. However, the overall experience did not match our expectations. We were informed by the server that there was a fee of HK$28 for free flow still or sparkling water and that tap water was not available. However, the bottles that they provided the still water in were neither sealed nor packaged. Our server was not friendly and when we only ordered 2 pastas and 1 side, he was qui
Our server was not friendly and when we only ordered 2 pastas and 1 side, he was quick to inform us in a somewhat condescending tone that "the portions are small but it is your choice". We had ordered a ravioli and wondered if he meant that there were only a few pieces. When we asked him, he bluntly said that we did not order the ravioli and seemed quite annoyed. When we clarified that we had ordered the shrimp ravioli he subsequently qualified that they had previously had multiple versions of ravioli including pumpkin ravioli, beef ravioli and lobster ravioli, the relevance of which we did not understand.
Upon finishing our meal we noticed that all other tables had a bread basket. We asked another female server who had helped us with our bill whether we had to order the bread separately and she seemed surprised and asked whether it wasn't given to us and she told us she could give it to us immediately. However, as we were already done with the meal, we decided just to leave.
Overall, the experience was disappointing and we would not be returning. While the pasta itself was decent, it felt overpriced and our total bill came up to HK$671 for 2 pastas and 1 side. You would get better value for money and probably better service elsewhere.
