BESTIA

This place absolutely slaps. It’s ridiculously overpriced, but it’s some of the best pasta I’ve ever had. Go once, and order everything.

Highly rated and high quality ingredients albeit expensive for the portions, pasta all cooked al dente. Our favorite dish was possibly the roasted bone marrow which is scooped and mixed into spinach gnocchetti, although inflation seems to have removed fennel as a topping. The Tagliatelle, a slightly wide noodle with light pork ragu. The Chestnut & Mushroom Agnolotti was quite unique in a wonderfully surprising way.

Unfortunately, you'll no longer be able to find the cassoeula ("a version of a traditional cabbage stew popular in Milan") that was mentioned by Jonathan Gold because it "hasn't been on the menu for quite some time".

The service although cordial can sometimes be hard to find due to the sheer volume of customers in the dining area, specifically servers. There are plenty of busboys around to refill water or take away finished plates. The atmosphere was dimly lit but very crowded and noisy with narrow spaces to walk, don't come here if you're claustrophobic or looking for an intimate environment.

For any special occasion, you won't be receiving anything complimentary so don't wait for it. There are only two unisex bathrooms which is a bit surprising considering that the restaurant felt like it seated 100 people.

For pasta, we'll stick to Colapasta.

If you're still starving afterwards, Guerilla Tacos is right around the corner.

Very nice place, with a relaxing environment to eat with a partner and enjoy pasta.

10/10!

The food was very good but was very rushed. Felt more like a tourist experience than dinner at a good restaurant.
