I visited Becco for the first time (with my husband, a regular visitor). I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. The location and ambience made for a perfect evening. I had heard so much about the iconic restaurant so thought I may have got my hopes up. I was not disappointed.

The service was exceptional as was the timing between meals. Our waitress was knowledgeable on the menu and didn't miss a beat. We had a wonderful 3 course meal and I thought my husband had died and gone to heaven as he consumed the roast duck. I ordered tagliatelle with crab, chilli and garlic. It was very tasty, however slightly oily but that certainly didn't stop me from polishing off every mouthful.

I passed on my feedback to the waitress so she could let the chef know. As we were about to have our departure latte, she arrived with a sweet treat to make up for my slightly oily pasta. Completely unexpected just added to the great service and evening.

I recently had dinner with a group of 8 others. The service was very attentive, I had a time constraint which they were very accommodating and aware of throughout our meal. The atmosphere was very welcoming and relaxing. The wine list was very good and the food generally nice, but entree serves small. There was also too much olive oil on most things for my taste. The Spaghettini with tuna and tomato was nice.

Excellent service. Very good wine list with a range of half bottles and wines by the glass.

Exemplary spaghettini with crab and chili, moist veal cutlet., fresh salads, wonderful dessert and coffee.

A favorite bistro with high end restaurant prices that continues to do enough, though would be considered pricey for the food.

Not every restaurant is for everyone, and this one certainly wasn't for me. The bread and olive oil was nice, but the bruschetta was unispiring. For mains we had lamb shanks and lamb and risotto. Talk about loaves and fishes - with serves this size you could feed all of Palestine on a single sheep. I had four slices of lamb fillet atop my (gluggy) rice and jb had less than one shanks' worth of meat plus a fried gnoccho. For $70. We didn't stay for dessert.
