Thank you for your kind comments about our food and restaurant we truly appreciate it. As noted on our booking page, especially during busy weekend periods, our tables are reserved for a two-hour seating so that we can accommodate all guests fairly, similar to many many other restaurants in the city. On this occasion, the last guest on your table arrived 45mins later than the scheduled time, which unfortunately reduced the amount of dining time available. We also did our best to allow additional time, and the following reservation waited approximately 25 minutes before being seated so that your group could enjoy more time at the table. We sincerely apologize if the reminder about the seating time felt uncomfortable; our intention is always to manage reservations as fairly as possible while ensuring every guest has an enjoyable experience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again soon.

When we got to the restaurant, the person who brought us to our table was not very communicative when trying to talk to them; Which made it feel awkward. I was very disappointed with the food (Ravioli was still hard, the Focaccia appetizer was very basic and underwhelming, and the scallop Crudo was poorly plated and not worth the price!). Those were just some of the more disappointing meal factors. After being disappointed we wanted to finish the night with a good coffee, but was also disappointed because the coffee was cold. Unfortunately the only way I would recommend this restaurant is if there would be overall improvements in food execution and portion size, prices and service efficiency.

Dear Carlos, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We apologize for the service feeling awkward or uncommunicative. Unfortunately, during that weekend part of our team was affected by a seasonal virus, which required us to operate with reduced staff. While this is not an excuse, it may explain why the service was less smooth than usual. We are also very sorry to hear about your disappointment with the food and the coffee. Your comments regarding the ravioli, focaccia, scallop crudo, presentation, and overall value have been shared with both our kitchen and service teams, as they are essential for improving our execution and consistency. Thank you again for your honest feedback. We hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide the experience we strive to deliver. Kind regards, The birbante team

Birbante was just okay overall. Nothing particularly stood out, and the portions were quite small for the price. The lamb skewers, in particular, were very small and felt underwhelming. The food was fine, but the experience didn’t quite live up to expectations.
