Ranked Tre Forchette by Gambeto Rosso but only 1* by Michelin, I had the Come è profondo il mare (depths of the sea) for 140€. This consisted of 8 courses. I didn’t do the wine pairings, but the meal was an excellent deal.
Friendly and personable chef and staff, even if they don’t speak a lot of English. Most dishes were fantastic, a few standouts. Chef Pascucci highlights seafood cooking—we are at the shore of the Tyrrhenian sea after all—and some inspiration from Japanese cooking.
Highlights are the oyster, mullet, tataki, and souffle. The raviolo was probably the only miss of the night.
