A disappointment after my trip to Italy. For fine dining and rave reviews, I expected much more. The bread was ok. The pesto lacked pine nuts. It was all olive oil and basil. The pasta was not al dente. It was much softer than what I ate in Italy. Also, the choice of pasta with pesto was poor. Sheets of pasta with pesto is clumsy to eat and not the best option for picking up sauce. The crab cake in the Mixto mare was mediocre. It was not the lump crab meat kind. The swordfish was overcooked.
