Bookmarked this restaurant for years and finally got a chance to spend my evening here celebrating my best friend's birthday.

Staff was welcoming with bright smiles all the time. Appreciated to arrange a seat with some privacy. Restaurant design was modern and cozy.

We SOLE set covering two appetisers, one main, one protein and a dessert.

Tuna tartare came clean and neat. Staff asked if helping to pour the parsley sauce. It was absolutely appealing with the sauce. Bright green with tie-dye like pattern. It was appetising. Tuna cubes were in perfect size. Tangy and refreshing. Could taste a hint of dill but mild. Love the herbiness.

Burrata with cold cuts were also drooling to eat. Burrata was well drizzled with good quality olive oil and cracked black pepper. Burrata was so soft that melted into mouth. Creamy to coat the charred peach and cold cut. Perfect with the sweetness and savoury ham.

Arancini was kind of let down. I was so looking forward to try their arancini which could barely find any Italian serving with arancini. It was deep fried perfectly with gooey centre. Couldnt taste much rice texture which could imagine how indulgent the texture was. Sadly, mushroom flavour and pieces were barely tasted. However, their marinara was kind of saving the dish, it brought a good tomato acidity flavour to the dish.

Risotto carbonara was another surprise. I was going to ask for cracking black pepper which I usually does. After a well mix, their bacon bites gave a good crunch and smokiness. It was well sesaoned. Neither heavy nor rich at all. I was impressed. Perfect portion.

We picked cod alla livornese. It was a light protein dish. Even it's again in tomato sauce, it was not boring at all. By adding olive pieces, sauce was extra savoury with the olive itself taste. Perfect well with the soft cod pieces. Cod was cooked perfectly and coated well with the sauce. Potato cubes were also mixed together with.

Tiramisu was served at last with a surprising mini birthday celebration. Thanks Pirata team, it was so warming and memorable. We enjoyed a lot. Absolutely in love with their classic. Topped crunchy cocoa nibs were my favourite. Not as heavy as many tiramisu tasted. Perfect portion to round up tonight.

A dining experience I wish to come back again and again. Staff was helpful and efficient to keep refilling water and change plates between dishes. Observant to serve mains and dessert after dishes. Highly recommend.
