Did you eat at La Pergola? I'm assuming I'd be spending $400 before alcohol, don't get too many opportunities to eat at a 3 Michelin star restaurant.....how's the experience?

Had dinner there one week ago.
it was excellent in timing; moderate in service
Dinner on food was relevant but some dishes were below my expectation
Beverage (totally selected by them both test and price) was not on pair

their fixed menu is 230 euro plus 45 euro if you want canapè and champagne for starters

I stayed there as well at the hotel was ok to be a Hilton but certainly nothing special and not worth to chose it over a central option
