Dining at this restaurant was, in many ways, a unique experience—one that left me both amused and contemplative.The octopus, while commendably tender, was unfortunately drenched in olive oil, to the point that it overwhelmed rather than enhanced the dish. A similar fate befell the mushrooms stuffed with crab meat: a decent concept in theory, but again, the excessive use of olive oil dulled the flavors instead of elevating them.Our waiter enthusiastically recommended the baked red snapper, describing its preparation in great detail. The dish was enjoyable overall, but I found it difficult to justify the price point based on the flavor alone. What made the evening even more surreal was the complete absence of other diners—we were the only two guests in the entire restaurant. It almost felt as though my date had gone to the extravagant lengths of renting out the place for the evening. While it did add an oddly luxurious and private feel to the night, it also left us wondering why the place was so empty.Upon arrival, the host presented us with the option of simply "red or white wine," which was oddly amusing and left us wondering if that was the extent of their wine selection. Moments later, another waiter arrived with what he called the "Bible" of wine menus—complete with a table of contents. We opted for the Spanish house white wine, which proved to be unremarkable and forgettable.The restaurant’s interior evoked strong memories for me. With its traditional décor and classic paintings, it bore a striking resemblance to the dining hall of the preschool I attended in Italy—formal, nostalgic, and oddly evocative of childhood PTSD.Despite the culinary missteps, I must commend the staff for their warmth and professionalism. They were attentive, accommodating, and refreshingly nonjudgmental, which made the overall experience more pleasant than it might have otherwise been. - Maria N
