Casa Tartufo, which literally means "House of Truffles" in Italian, offers a warm and welcoming dining experience. With its classic Italian chic decor, the cosy interior resembles a homey atmosphere commonly seen in Milan, Turin, and Florence. Sourcing 80% of its ingredients directly from Italy, the restaurant serves a repertoire of authentic Italian dishes, many of which include some element of truffle.

For instance, the Carbonara Pasta infuses the classic ingredients of pancetta and egg-yolk cream with truffle. Even desserts like gelato and tiramisu incorporate this luxurious ingredient. More broadly, the restaurant is devoted to serving high quality and delicious Italian food, such as the freshly made Ravioli and the Milanese (pounded veal chop in Grissini crust, tomatoes, and rucola).

"The food, though, is excellent - take our wagyu carpaccio, delicately offset with parmesan and truffle oil, and the buratta (creamy mozzarella) and tomato salad, somewhat meager in size, but nevertheless fresh and suitably light. For the first of our mains we opted for the homemade mushroom and truffle ravioli in a parmesan fondue, and indulged in fresh shavings of black Provencal truffle (currently $8/gram), which gave the dish a welcome, almost meaty flavor." -SG Now

"The current crop, the summer truffle, is featured in almost all the dishes on the two-page menu of Italian classics that include sea-urchin risotto and tagliatelle pomodoro. Desserts are also 'enriched' - homemade truffle with Piedmont hazelnut gelato and truffle tiramisu." -Time Out Singapore
