Timpano Hyde Park

For Sunday lunch, we visited Timpano Hyde Park. Since we had made a reservation in advance, we were seated immediately upon arrival. The ambiance and decor of the restaurant was impressive, creating a lively and inviting atmosphere with guests enjoying their meals. Our server, Steven, greeted us and provided menus and water. Unsure about which appetizer to choose, we took his recommendation and ordered the Burrata. For our main courses, we went with: Funghi Crostini, Bucatini, Truffle Trotters. The Burrata arrived first, and it was a standout dish--creamy, flavorful, and complemented perfectly by pistachios, cheese, and bread. It was one of the best appetizers we've had and set a great tone for the meal. Next, our main courses arrived. The Truffle Trotters were a bit underwhelming, and we regretted not choosing Truffle Fries instead. However, the Funghi Crostini and Bucatini were well-prepared, delicious, and served in generous portions. Overall, we enjoyed our experience at Timpano and had a great Sunday afternoon lunch.

Overall, it’s a good restaurant in a busy/ active location. The food takes a while to be brought out, but the taste makes up for it. I think the pesto is really good. The garlic flavor is very strong and the shrimp is cooked well. It might be loud in the restaurant but the seats, tables, and design is modern and traditional. It’s a good restaurant, and I highly recommend it.

The Salmon was delicious and the smoke potatoes were unbelievably yummy. The place has a very nice ambiance. The waitress was respectful. This place needs some improvement: it tries to be upscale but it needs work. The most requested food was the pasta. The pasta was prepared in front of our table with hot hater, even with that when we ate it was cold as it was in the refrigerator. It was also not really cooked al dente. I asked for a glass of tab water without ice. The waitress brought a new pitcher when I looked at my water it had a big piece of ice on it.
