The restaurant is very attractive, a striking contrast from the entrance which is brightly lit, hot and noisy. But the dining area is elegant. Unfortunately the food does NOT live up to the atmosphere. Most of our choices were overwhelmed with thick tomato sauce. The pasta which was supposed to have a truffle sauce not only did not seem to have truffle flavor at all but had an odd taste which made it inedible. An Italian restaurant which cannot produce good pasta will not entice me back.
