Had a fantastic meal at F&F — this place continues to impress. The beef carpaccio was a standout: beautifully sliced, delicately seasoned, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. It struck the perfect balance of richness and lightness. And of course, the pizza did not disappoint — crisp, blistered crust with outstanding toppings and that signature F&F flavor that keeps you coming back. A relaxed, unpretentious spot that consistently delivers on quality and taste.
