With the midday sun intensifying the humidity, we relished the cooling air conditioning indoors. It started off strong, but unfortunately began spluttering and blowing warm air shortly after we sat down. We continued our lunch, wondering if it might actually be cooler outside. Fortunately the food was decent and we had a pleasant experience despite our struggle with the ambient temperature. Focaccia Garlic, Butter and Mozzarella (8/10). This was my favourite amongst the dishes we ordered. We initially thought it was a garlic naan because of the crispy, flat, lightly charred round shape with garlicky flavours. That was until we bit into the mozarella cheesy middle. Cream of Pumpkin Soup with Truffle Oil (7/10). A smooth and creamy Pumpkin soup topped with crispy croutons and a light dash of truffle oil. We would have appreciated a higher pumpkin to cream ratio and more salt, but it was still enjoyable. Carnivora Pizza (7/10). We ordered the pizza without the salami as it was a processed mixture of beef and pork. The pizza was cheesy, tomatoey, and the ham was delicious. The crust was fluffy and chewy. Quattro Formaggi & Honey (7.5/10). A family friendly cheese pizza that would be appealing to most palates without diners complaining it's overly funky. My slices were milky and creamy, with only the faintest notes of gorgonzola. We wished they were more generous with the honey. The crust softens quickly - some parts were chewy, and others crispy. Risotto with Shrimp, Zucchini and Lemon. (6/10) The tomato and prawn bisque was more tart and tomatoey than prawn-forward, with a light prawn taste. Risotto a little mushy but I enjoyed the Zucchini. Pan seared Salmon with cauliflower cream and salad (6/10). The salmon was slightly overcooked and a little dry. Desserts - Creme Brulee, melting chocolate cake, tiramisu (7/10). We enjoyed the creme brulee best!

Exceptional service by Roy! He was attentive, warm, and genuinely made us feel well taken care of throughout the evening. His attention to detail really elevated the entire dining experience and made it one worth coming back for. Kudos to Roy! 👏 Note to self, ask for the Grappa to end the night!

Perfect neighbourhood Italian restaurant. Didn’t have a reservation and we were able to get a nice table outside. Much to my surprise, I loved the baked eggplant, it was so tasty and fork tender, really a great dish. Went for the standard Margherita pizza because it’s the best way to judge, and it was a really good pizza though not the best crust I’ve had in Singapore. And we ended up eating the fettuccini with pancetta as leftovers for the next couple of days. 100% yummy!
