I am sorry to say that, but going to this restaura...

I am sorry to say that, but going to this restaurant has been - by far - the most disappointing experience in the US for me so far (I am German). The place has an undeniably beautiful flair, but this first expression is completely shattered by their price-benefit ratio. I had a black truffle Pinsa and I regrettably have to say that it was the worst one I ever had. First of all, I ordered that Pinsa with added ham topping and was promptly told that this is not possible as the cook did not want it that way. Fair, if you serve some 3-star-michelin dish (which they don't). After some negotiations, I got three slices of ham on a extra plate for no less than $10. Welp, there's that. But coming to the main dish: The dough-to-topping ratio was off the chart in a sense that there was essentially no topping at all and the so-called truffle was non-existant (taste-wise, I got some black crumps on my Pinsa which MIGHT have been truffle....). So far, so good, if you charge $7 for that. But no, they cost $30! This is in my opinion (and I have been to Italy several times and KNOW!) not worth your money in any way, if you want to burn your money while eating bland food served by stubborn waiters by any means be their guest, otherwise avoid this place at all costs! We ended paying $130 for two Pinsa (one with ham) and four glasses of (bland) wine. I do not know what we paid for but it certainly wasn't cooking skill, flavor, a wine connoisseur and service.
