Food was excellent (squid ink pasta), cocktail was delicious (lion cub), staff was attentive and knowledgeable (Alexis and Jorge).
Highly recommended.
Excellent modern Italian cuisine. Just don't go wanting an old American style marinara sauce that is heavy on the garlic.
My favorite place to eat! Really. This is my neighborhood go to... lucky me.
This is difficult because I avoid being overly critical of restaurants. I was really disappointed at Corso. I expected so much more.
The one positive thing that I can say is that service was very good.
We ordered the anchovy app and the chicken liver pate. The anchovies were not special. As a matter of fact they appeared as ordinary canned anchovy. The liver "pate" was more of a liver saute. Piled on crostini the presentation was vulgar looking.
I ordered the Branzino my partner the pork cutlet. My fish had a lovely crisp skin but the meat was mushy.
As I said. Disappointed.
Service and food exceed expectations. Simply spectacular. Several meals here and each has been spectacular.
