What people say, in short
Paladar 511 is recommended as a modern Italian spot, described as semi-fancy and hip with a bistro-style setting. Diners single out dishes including arancini, pappardelle, squid ink spaghetti and a beef carpaccio with fried oysters, and a few call the food consistently delicious. One visitor had a subpar meal with undercooked, underseasoned dishes and indifferent service, so opinions are not unanimous.
