My wife and I came here with another couple to try out the amazing food that Il Corso is known for. This place definitely lived up to its reputation!
We started with some stuffed, fried olives, fried zucchini, and beef carpaccio. All of these were excellent, but I think if I had to choose a favorite, I’d go with the zucchini. Crazy! Next time I will try the Fritto Misto, which also has squid and shrimp.
My wife had the paccheri with pistachio cream sauce and crumbled sausage. Amazing! Easily a top five pasta dish for me.
I had the veal cutlet Milanese.
Added some nice fresh shaved parm on top:
It was perfect. Super crisp outside, tender and juicy inside. Ate every last bit of it!
And for dessert, Nutella pie, lemon bomb cake, and flan. All delicious, but I think the flan “took the cake.”
I can’t wait to go back here and the the lamb ragu pappardelle, and so many other dishes.
