I visited Satyricon on a Monday to celebrate a friend's birthday with a group of 12. Overall, it…read morewas a great experience with a few drawbacks.
The service was excellent, our servers were incredibly patient, attentive, and friendly. A pleasant surprise was that they spoke English, which made ordering much easier and honestly encouraged us to try more food and drinks. (Our server apologized for their English but our server had a great command of the language)
I ordered a caipirinha, the Cozze a Piacere, and the Spaghetti alle Vongole. Everything was delicious. The spaghetti with clams was perfectly portioned and full of flavor. The drinks were strong, beautifully presented, and well made. One small disappointment: my appetizer was listed online as coming with bread, but it didn't. Luckily, someone at the table ordered bread later so I got to enjoy the delicious broth with the musssles.
The restaurant itself is tastefully decorated with a warm, inviting ambiance, perfect for special occasions or date night.
That said, the biggest downside was the restroom situation. The ladies restroom was clogged and had an unpleasant odor, which detracted from the overall experience. The handicapped restroom, however, was much cleaner. (I took a star away for this reason only)
After reading mixed reviews beforehand, I wasn't sure what to expect, but we were treated very well. The staff struck a great balance, attentive without being intrusive and were very accommodating throughout the evening. The bill was also clearly itemized and easy to understand, which is always appreciated for a large group.
Tip: Don't hesitate to ask questions,
the staff is knowledgeable and happy to help guide your choices.
