    The wine list should be more affordable - the French wines are truly too expensive. Overall, a wonderful experience. Many thanks

    Fabulous wine list and knowledgeable sommelier. While I thought the service and food were terrific, the restaurant struggled with a disruptive patron who was clueless to others around him and how he was treating the staff. He was responsible for a large party (UN week related apparently) and instead of finalizing arrangements beforehand, he changed them upon arrival multiple times. Management should avoid such disruptions to the rest of their patrons who are more likely to come back again. Definitely will go back and hope the ambience is better.

    The food continues to be excellent. The chairs are uncomfortable. The service is spotty. We had to ask for water. We had to ask for a wait person. We had to ask about the specials. Food and ambience outweigh this but it is a consistent issue since opening.

    Excellent Vitello Tonnato and delicious lobster risotto with a recommended dry white wine from Sicily that was perfection. Not too expensive I loved it. I was a 4Season regular and happy to see this beautiful space evolve. It’s still stunning!!

    This was my first time and there will be a repeat, that is the best I can say. The wine list is good on Italians and vitello tonnato and ossobuco very tasty.

    We went by open table reviews - food and service was good- but man…. Was it expensive for the portion of risotto I got. Don’t get me wrong- it was delicious- but the risotto di go we had in Italy for a fraction of the price was way better and the portion was made for an adult human. Oh… and the waitstaff took my wine glass after one glass but failed to ask if I wanted another - so strange.

    Outstanding restaurant. Oscar was an excellent server. The Sommelier guided us to make an excellent wine selection. The only negative is that at times the noise level was too high. We were only two, so it was manageable, but for a business party of four or more I would have concerns about booking there.

    Fasano is a beautiful restaurant - decor, bar, furnishings. Ambience wise- it’s catered for business lunches/ dinners so if it’s a social event - it may seem too “stuffy/proper”. I had organised a birthday dinner there and the service was cold and stressful - we had a couple of questions on the menu but the server was impatient and curt with us - although we were a large group (5 people). Food was very good - I would advise to keep this for business events and not social/ personal events.
