Gnocchi was over-salted, and the panna cotta dessert was over-sweetened. There was also only one other customer in the whole restaurant (I went on a Tuesday evening), which made it a bit boring. The location of the restaurant itself (in the Ritz Carlton hotel) was beautiful, very grand entrance. Quite pretty. This is the second time I've been here. The first time last year was OK, tried it again but was unfortunately not left impressed by the food for the price. But again -- service was exceptional.

They even sang a birthday song for my man and that meant so much to me ! To see him in real smiles was my gift and for that I also thank you Azzurro staff!
