Trattoria L'Operetta is the perfect place for a laid back dinner in a cozy environment with no crowd, attentive service and great food. I came by for dinner on a weekday night and the small restaurant was relatively empty which made chatting over dinner very comfortable.
I love the dim lighting and wooden furniture which gave the restaurant a vintage and cozy vibe. The only downside was the higher temperature inside the restaurant due to the indoor oven placed close to the entrance. We were seated directly under the air-conditioning but still, I was thankful I was wearing something sleeveless that day.
The service was fantastic. Recommendations by the manager (or at least I think he is the manager) were very satisfactory and it felt as though he can read your mind sometimes! We ordered the Prosciutto Rucola Pizza with additional mushrooms and barramundi carpaccio recommended by the cheerful manager.
The raw barramundi slices with olive oil drizzled on top and diced tomatoes and onions proved to be an amazing appetizer. The fish slices were very fresh and sweet and the diced tomatoes and onions gave the taste of the fish slices a great boost.
The Prosciutto Rucola Pizza was fantastic. The only other place that serves such tasty and authentic Italian pizzas is Pepperoni and Pepperoni is always so crowded. Our pizza was piled high with ingredients and I love the slices of parma ham stacked on top. And look at the mozzarella cheese! Perfect.
L'Operetta is in the Tanjong Katong area which means it is pretty much out of the way from all nearby MRT stations and probably only people living in the east will be familiar with the shops around here. I took Bus 10 from Esplanade Drive and reached here speedily.
