Sartoria review by Guy
We went to Sartoria for a post Icebar meal as part of a work do and the décor was fantastic. The service was also fairly good but the food was a disgrace. I am not normally the most critical person, but I was shocked at the poor level of cooking. I am not sure if it was due to it being a work function in the back room with a different set menu and they focus on serving the smaller groups of customers better but this is still not an excuse.
The starter was a ball of buffalo mozzarella bigger than my fist. It was fairly bland mozzarella although this was not my complaint. It was supposed to be a starter not an entire meal consisting of cheese.
For the main I had the rib eye steak which we were not asked how we would like it served, not that it probably would have made any difference. The steak came out well done and was dry enough to leech the water out of my mouth.
The desert was the mildest cheesecake I have ever had. I did enjoy it, although it was so unadventurous that it could have been bought from Tesco.
The private hire room looks fantastic and the staffs serving us were wonderful, but the kitchen staff would be more suited to work in an east end greasy spoon (although I have had better steaks in those). This was the general consensus amongst 35+ people attending. I will certainly not be returning.
