Looking for Italian places?

We queued for less than 30 minutes on a Friday around 4 PM, and here’s my take on @casavostra 👀

Personally, I LOVE LOVE cheese, but the Ravioli Ricotta e Spinaci wasn’t the kind of cheesy ravioli I was craving for. The cheese flavour was a little overwhelming, which covered the taste of the spinach overall — but the portion size will definitely make you feel “gelate” (aka super full and satisfied 😋).

A big “YES!” to their sourdough pizza 🍕 I ordered the Prosciutto e Rucola, and it was simple yet so flavourful — the savory cured ham + peppery rocket combo was just ooooof, I love it! 💚
Do note though, the portion is perfect for one pax, so… maybe order more to share~ 😉

Review:
🤤 : 3.8 / 5
💰 : ~ $30+ per pax

($7.90) black truffle was not that strong enough tbh but the sauce was quite creamy and milky.

($2.90) I didn't expected that to be so spicy aftertaste with veg :")

[TELOK AYER, SINGAPORE] If you fancy a good evening night out with good food and drinks, look no further as @gotti.sg got it handled. Splendid food, really good cocktails and entertaining bartenders and servers really made our evening here.

Being an Italian restaurant, Gotti executed their risotto and pizzas really well. Risotto Al Granchio 🦞 ($32) boasts a really delicious lobster bisque with bits of crabmeat that provided additional sweetness. There was the slight bite to the risotto that I was looking for too! Pesto E Burrata 🌿 ($36) pizza was a delight as well, with a fluffy chewy crust that was so well seasoned, and a pesto & burrata flavour combination that was rich and aromatic.

As for starters, Ceviche Di Capesante 🐚($32) was really refreshing with tangy, sweet and savoury flavours all coming through from the yuzu dressing, scallops and ikura. You can try to ask for their current hidden menu, which was their Beef Tartare 🐮 at that point of time. It was so fresh too!

Desserts can't be skipped here, with their Tiramisu 🍰 ($18) being a lovely end to the meal. They don't go easy with the liqueur in this, which made it so satisfying 😋

Their cocktails are definitely a speciality here, with the bartenders being so skillful. Their Old Fashioned 🥃 ($22) was really one of the best I've had, with the whisky blending so well with the cinnamon flavours. They can even do bespoke drinks, which is an experience to try 😍

They have speciality event nights with DJs playing running across several days in a week too... Gah there's just too many reasons to come here 🥹 Everyone in the @gotti.sg team was so lively, and you can see their passion in their job through the food, drinks and service. Can't wait to be back for a good evening again. Thank you @gotti.sg for the invite 😍

Iced Peach Lemonade ($7++)
Fruity, sweet-sourish, and fizzy.

Iced Strawberry Lemonade ($7++)
Sweet-tarty, tangy, and fizzy.

72% Dark Chocolate Gelato, Hazelnut Crumble.
Looks good but doesn’t taste as good. Not smooth nor creamy — rather cheap chocolatey taste and icy texture. Not our favourite.

Cream, Vanilla, Strawberry, Fresh Basil, EVOO.
Soft and pudding-like. Kinda surprised they sprinkled black pepper on it, but it actually goes well. Interesting — sweet, tarty, peppery, creamy all at once.

Savoiardi, Coffee (decaf), Cocoa.
Simple and nicely made. The savoiardi soaked up the coffee nicely, keeping it moist. Mascarpone created a creamy layer, and the cocoa powder added depth. Nothing fanciful — very basic, the true way of making tiramisu.

Tiramisù Mascarpone ($13++)
Savoiardi, Coffee (decaf), Cocoa.

Overall, just go during non-peak hours if possible but not too late, else no stock. Get their pizza! Can’t relax, chill, and eat in peace as you need to keep track of the dining time, although the staff will prompt your table. As for queueing to eat, I probably wouldn’t recommend it, hmm... maybe max 30 minutes wait. Otherwise, you wait so long and get so hungry, whatever you eat will taste awesome.

Mortadella, Burrata, Pistachio, Lemon Zest, Fresh Basil, Parmigiano Reggiano.
Not to confuse this pizza on the menu with NEWPOLITAN® WHITE — this is the DOUBLECRUNCH® version and it’s fantastic. I had no idea what double crunch meant, so I ordered one to try and we were not disappointed. The pizza crust basically became a subway sandwich with all the mortadella stuffing in it. The crunchiness was extreme, and with each bite gave a loud crunch before you got to enjoy the creamy, nutty, and savoury filling.

Fresh Black Truffle, Truffle Oil, Mushrooms, Fiordilatte, Taleggio, Thyme.
Deep mushroomy earthiness, fresh delicate cheesiness with subtle sweetness. Portion was good, ingredients were neatly and evenly spread, and the pizza crust was legit good. Don’t usually like thick crust, but theirs is nice and quite crispy.
