Falcone

After going to Water Parade, we returned to IFC to have lunch, and decided to try out Falcone, a Napolean pizza restaurant. The yellow signage of red characters certainly is eye-catching. They also have another outlet at The Peak.Seated at the comfortable sofa in the dining area, the décor here is neat, with a fun and casual vibe, using some bright colours in the furniture. Even the staff uniform has a cute design reminding me of ice-cream parlour.After a refreshing BioPlose Pink Grapefruit ($68), the staff served us Insalata Mista ($208). The salad had plenty of lettuce dressed in a anchovy vinaigrette with nice combination of savoury and acidity. Together with caper breadcrumbs and grated pecorino, it was simple but good in taste.Next came Diavola Pizza ($268). A standard 12-inch size, the pizza had a crisp crust on the edge, a thin dough with tomato paste. The toppings included fior di latte, a fresh Italian cheese of mild taste, salame piccante, a spicy cured Italian salami, and some black olives. The pizza was delicious.The Linguine al Granchio e Gamberi ($308) was honestly a bit too much after the pizza. The pasta was al dente in texture though, cooked with prawns, crab and tomato, plus a thick sauce with chilli and vino branco. The pasta was nicely seasoned and flavourful.Service was good, though I was surprised and a bit upset when I saw another table served with mussels when I was told it was not available during my order. Since we were already midway through, I did not ask them to explain. The bill on the day was $1,024. Nice pizza.…查看更多

We walked in around 5 pm on a Saturday and was given a one-hour dining limit. We were fine with that since we just wanted a quick meal, not a special date night or anything. The service felt a bit too casual. The girl at reception was on the phone when we arrived and made us wait for her to finish before seating us—quite an awkward start. Throughout the meal, it was difficult to get the staff’s attention, even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. It seemed like the team was more interested in chatting with each other than attending to customers. We ordered a glass of Prosecco and Moscato, but neither arrived—and they weren’t removed from our bill until we asked. Meanwhile, other guests who arrived after us received their drinks without issue. The food was overpriced for what it delivered. The best part of the pizza was the crust. The cheese tasted too funky for me and even for my boyfriend, who usually enjoys cheese. We also ordered a pasta dish that didn’t list cheese in the ingredients but definitely tasted cheesy, with a strange flavor and texture. Overall, it was a disappointment from start to finish. I expected better from Black Sheep. Poor food and service - won’t be returning.…查看更多

之前有朋友说过这间餐厅不错，今天经过就试一试 。lunch time冇book位，就咁Walk in都有位叫咗两样野 。一个前菜 系红虾carpaccio $308. 份量少得可怜 。不埋一齐 ，都唔知有冇一匙羹？另外叫咗一个Margherita Pizza $258. Pizza批边超阔 。成个Pizza都好干。最大问题系佢饮品类系冇Menu 比人睇 。drink Menu只系得wine. 我话要冻柠茶佢话冇。然后佢口噏噏话俾我听有咩non alcohol 嘢饮,只系得Lemonade同埋可乐,最大问题系佢冇话俾我听几多钱,而且佢亦都冇Menu俾人睇 。乜而家饮品都系市价嘅咩？海鲜啊？ 最后我哋一人叫咗一杯Lemonade 。我个杯叫Orange Lemonade实际上就系芬达汽水加咗一片橙喺入边。最后埋单，终于开估，原来$68一杯。我觉得佢唔标价好有问题，你买几钱应该标明价钱比人哋睇，你唔标价，但系个侍应又唔话俾我听几多钱 。我尝试再叫另外一个男侍应过嚟问佢，但系佢都系冇认真答我 。最尾呢餐两个人食咗差唔多$800我都唔知食咗啲乜嘢。永远唔会再帮衬 。…查看更多

Falcone is a neo-Neapolitan style of pizzeria where they focus on finessing their craft while perserving the vibrant essence of Napoli, so one shall not mistaken it as an authentic Neapolitain pizza place. ——————————————————🅐🅝🅣🅘🅟🅐🅢🅣🅘✨ℂ𝕒𝕣𝕡𝕒𝕔𝕔𝕚𝕠 𝕕𝕚 𝔾𝕒𝕞𝕓𝕖𝕣𝕚 ℝ𝕠𝕤𝕤𝕚✨$298Fresh prawn sliced into thin pieces, unfortunately chef gave a big pinch of salt which overpowered the natural sweetness of the red prawn. The portion is pity considering the aggressive pricing and you can tell from the shot it was never a complete circle in the first place.🅟🅐🅢🅣🅔 🅔 🅩🅤🅟🅟🅔✨ℝ𝕚𝕘𝕒𝕥𝕠𝕟𝕚 𝕒𝕝𝕝𝕒 𝔾𝕖𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕤𝕖✨$248The rigatoni is served on a bowl that at first sight we underestimated the actual portion.  Love the savory sauce with flavourful chunks of beef. The texture of the pasta is perfectly Al Dente. My favourite out of the night.🅟🅘🅩🅩🅔✨𝕄𝕒𝕣𝕘𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕥𝕒✨$238I always ordered Margherita on my first visit to any pizzeria. Margherita is so classic that you could hardly blew it but at the same time difficult to pull it off. Sadly the Margherita didn’t live up to my high expectation…I would say it is a slightly below average pizza. The outer crust is rather stiff instead of a pleasant crunch,the charred right edges suggesting uneven and over baking.———————————————————Black sheep normally stands for the benchmark of stable and premium quality with reasonable pricing yet my companion and me were not very impressed by the dining experience this time. The crowded dining room definitely suggests a solid customer base still Falcone gave me the vibe of an everyday bistro instead of destination to be.Follow for more dining experience and hottest deals in town:@ 𝓢𝓾𝓼𝓸𝓻𝓲.𝓯𝓸𝓸𝓭𝓲𝓮…查看更多
