What Peng Yu Chen (Peng) doesn't like about Faun:
Faun is a typical Italian restaurant in the neighborhood, with prices that are more commonly seen at destination Italian restaurants. The dishes are rather mediocre, and they tend to be quite classic without any surprises, almost bordering on lazy.The mushroom risotto, for instance, is pretty standard while the rice texture is good, the flavor is more on the savory side. The scallops have a soft, tenderized texture.... View all feedback. What Lucy Lucky likes about Faun:
Had a lovely dinner right inside close to the window on a very hot summer day. Cocktails were unique and interesting and the food was great! Got the squash blossom pasta and it was everything I?d hoped for. Will return! View all feedback.

Each dish was delicious in its own right. Appetizers, mains, and even dessert. Highly recommend.

Their “heated” garden is not really protected from wind. Not recommended on a cold, rainy night.
