Sweaty McDonald’s lettuce anyone? Pathetic and insulting. This review would’ve been one out of five if it wasn’t for the pianist, the fairly pleasant staff, the focaccia bread and one course which was actually okay. The restaurant is situated in a rather grand palazzo but unfortunately the atmosphere of the restaurant is dead to say the least. All tables were so hushed and pretentious but more fool them for thinking that they were so great and for eating here. I think this restaurant is very much an emperor’s new clothes situation. They put far too much emphasis on wine (and water for some bizarre reason) and not enough on the food. This is a bottle of wine with food on the side, not the other way round. The water menu is interesting but this is just something else I found quite pretentious and unnecessary, especially when such poor food is served here, who cares if the water is sourced from an arctic iceberg. None of the dishes served here were creative or on the other hand delightfully classical. Some members of the party had the vegetarian menu which was awful and insulting at times. This included a spaghetti dish which was not al dente at all and was akin to eating slop and cabbage which was served almost immediately after the worst thing I’ve ever eaten in a three Michelin starred restaurant, the lettuce. This lettuce was actually quite disgusting and was similar to something you’d find at the bottom of a McDonald’s burger, it was sweaty and just horrible. I recommend the restaurant to remove this dish immediately and to rethink their vegetarian menu or to not offer one at all. Just because someone doesn’t eat meat, it doesn’t mean they want to eat lettuce and cabbage, a little more thought would be appreciated please. Luckily, the focaccia and the gnocchi dish was okay. The cheese course here is ridiculously overpriced and not worth it. €80 for two plates of cheese you can get anywhere? However I was happy enough to pay this to eat something that had flavour. I ate at Osteria Francescana the night before and that was much more of an international three Michelin starred standard. The vegetarian menu there mirrored the standard menu with the dishes altered to become suitable. The flavours, creativity and technical skill were there at Francescana, here they were not. Five ages of parmesan or a lettuce? It doesn’t take long to realise which is a better dish. I’m not sure if Michelin is awarding here three stars because of its history, its wine cellar or what, but I think it’s time for a reevaluation. This restaurant is worthy of a single star at most for me personally. This is not the same standard as say Guy Savoy, Arpège, Mirazur or even L’Enclume and Clare Smyth in the UK. Grossly disappointing to say the least. I believe in Italy it is not actually necessary to eat in starred restaurants as the food is generally good in most restaurants, so unless somewhere is exceptionally creative, skilful or luxurious in ingredients, I don’t think it’s worth eating in a Michelin starred restaurant in Italy, there’s just so many better options. I can have better pasta and risotto in a trattoria next door. Unless you’re artistically reinventing these classic dishes or serving them in the traditional manner with the best of the best high priced luxury ingredients, why bother? I certainly do not recommend this restaurant at all unless you’re somebody who considers wine and water more important than the meal itself. Go to a trattoria or even get a sandwich at Antico Vinaio and save the rest of the money to spend somewhere worth going.
