Italy- what's not to like about it? Architecture, polite people, and oh yeah, food! I think Lemoncello tastes like it was made by some Italian granny who was at some point worshiped globally for her talents and retired filthy rich, deciding to hand over all of her recipes to a restaurant (hint: Lemoncello). The ingredients used seemed to have not lasted but a day in the kitchen. I guess Granny loved a good homemade meal hot, fresh, and delicious too! Without further ado, I enjoyed some soft, fluffy, and chewy bread. Then I ate a truly classic Minestrone. The vegetables’ consistency paired up very nicely with the savory lightness of its broth. I also found that the soup was good with the bread, soaking it up. In addition, I had an unpleasant bite of Grilled Asparagus that was peppery and salty. As for pasta, I loved the Ravioli because of its sauce and that the pasta was perfectly filled with cheese. I tried a miniature bite of Pesto Pizza and found that it seemed tender and firm, in a favorable way, too. An unforgettable detail you could always find is service. It was hard not to notice that the waitress asked us when we were ready to eat our main course. I definitely enjoyed my meal, savoring my experience eating and recieving exellent service. I would say Lemoncello is four and a half stars. Gold, pure gold.
Enjoy your next bites,
