For those seeking seafood, our carpaccio di pesce, made from seasonal fish, showcases freshness and balance, highlighting the culinary traditions of coastal Italy.
Each element of our appetizer menu is designed to complement our exquisite wines, offering an immersive experience that celebrates the artistry of Italian cuisine. As guests revel in the ambiance of our terrace, they are invited to sip, savor, and indulge in this exquisite prelude to what awaits in the main course. Ultimately, it is a harmonious marriage of flavors and a celebration of Italy’s rich culinary heritage.
