Chef’s Specials
Discover the tasting and à la carte menus created by Chef Luigi Nastri.
The journey
An experience that respects culinary ethics and enhances cultural exchange.
The à la carte menu or one of the tasting menus elaborated by chef Luigi Nastri will transport you to Italy, to traditions that authentically reflect the Italian Mediterranean diet, recognized by UNESCO as a valued element of the heritage of humanity.
Chef Nastri will introduce you to the refinements of Italian culinary microsystems, reinterpreting traditional methods that have constituted the history of Italian cuisine, innovating through technique and creativity while scrupulously respecting culinary origins and prioritizing fresh quality ingredients.
But that’s not all.

Raw ingredients
Carefully chosen and prepared.
We source most of our ingredients from Italian producers who represent the best of Italy. Whether extra-virgin olive oil, pasta, cheeses, preserves, or other ingredients, our pantry is only stocked with products that reflect excellent and healthy artisanal practices, which we treat correctly, with attention and care.
We respect geographical and seasonal limits: anything that cannot be delivered in excellent condition, intact and fresh, we buy from local farms and producers. We’ve found, tasted and fallen for many excellent products grown and produced in America, especially in the region of Charlotte.
