"cucina managed to press the two of us on what was clearly a very busy Friday night. they seem to have a lot of personal (which is rare nowadays! what meant service was attentive, but not too much and everything was done beautifully. eating was fab, wein was super cold and tasty, atmosphere was cracking. the place is much more beautiful and cosier and authentic in the interior than they expect from outside (what I think looks quite industrial). we will be back safely. they were looking for our local 'go to' place when they think something more lust and that could be it!"
