Pastart In Frascati

08/03/2025: If you're seeking an extraordinary dining experience in Rome, look no further than LUMEN at the St. Regis. From the moment we stepped into this elegant haven, we were enveloped by an ambiance that effortlessly blends sophistication with warmth-a perfect harmony of timeless luxury and Italian charm. The service? Nothing short of impeccable. Our server, Francesco, elevated the evening to an unforgettable level with his genuine hospitality and remarkable attention to detail. He didn't just serve us; he anticipated our every need, going above and beyond with a grace and enthusiasm that made us feel like royalty. The food at LUMEN is a celebration of flavors, each dish crafted with precision and passion. I highly recommend the Tuna Tartare with lime, capers, Vesuvian cherry tomatoes, avocado, and salted caramel - it's a masterpiece of balance, where the freshness of the tuna dances with the zesty lime and the unexpected sweetness of caramel. My wife opted for the Spaghetti with clams and tuna bottarga flakes, a dish that transported us straight to the coast of Italy with its briny, umami-rich perfection. As for me, the Beef Tartare with lemon, capers, and black truffle, served with a fresh salad, balsamic vinegar, parmesan chips, and fingerling potatoes, was an absolute revelation. Watching the Maître compose it tableside on a trolley cart added a theatrical flair that made the experience even more memorable. For dessert, we shared the Wild Strawberries with ice cream - a simple yet divine finale that left us savoring every spoonful. Every bite at LUMEN was a testament to the kitchen's artistry, and every moment was enhanced by Francesco's exceptional care. If you're in Rome, do yourself a favor: dine at LUMEN at the St. Regis and ask for Francesco. You'll leave with a full heart and a satisfied soul.
