I don't usually eat pasta outside nowadays because we've been making it from scratch at home. But their pasta dishes are definitely worth it!We booked a table outside for 3 people and ordered 3 dishes to share:Table side spaghetti in cheese wheel (198$)We were a bit disappointed when the waiter brought us the pasta already plated, since we were expecting the cheese wheel to be brought over like I had seen on other people's photos on Openrice before.

I don't usually eat pasta outside nowadays because we've been making it from scratch at home. But their pasta dishes are definitely worth it!We booked a table outside for 3 people and ordered 3 dishes to share:Table side spaghetti in cheese wheel (198$)We were a bit disappointed when the waiter brought us the pasta already plated, since we were expecting the cheese wheel to be brought over like I had seen on other people's photos on Openrice before. Maybe it's something they only do for indoor diners...Luckily, this dish was delicious! Truffle flavor wasn't too  overwhelming and the cheese was so good. The parma ham on top adds a nice salty touch. This was definitely the highlight of our dinner. 
Spicy Vodka rigatoni (178$)Very tasty dish too! I had had vodka tomato pasta before, still love it. The vodka is very subtle but add a special spicy sourness to it, which brings out the tomato's natural flavor. The rigatoni pasta was nice and al dente, bigger sized ones and there were pieces of ham in the dish as well.
Roasted rack of lamb (280$)The lamb was tasty although not evenly cooked. We asked for medium and the middle piece was more on the rare side while the outside bits were medium as we asked. But the sauce that came with it was very nice, i think I tasted balsamic vinegar in it. Not a lot of veggies came with it but they were quite nice. Didn't taste the pine nuts too much (unlike what the description of the dish says).
Overall food-wise we had a nice dinner. I would come again for a cheese wheel spaghetti fix! Unfortunately last night they told us that their liquor license had been suspended since the day before. So we had to get a bottle of wine at Classified to pair with our dinner. The service wasn't all that great, our waitress at the beginning was alright but the waiter that brought us our dishes barely looked at us and didn't seem like he wanted to talk to us when we asked questions. They came take out our plates fairly fast though.The restaurant itself is quite pleasant, especially the outdoor terrace where we ate. They have couches and chairs with comfy cushions and a couple of high tables. They had outdoor heaters which they didn't use for the temperature was very nice but it's good to know for cooler nights.The bathroom: It wasn't very clean (water on the floor) in the ladies, and they ran out of soap.
