But we were craving Mediterranean food, so we decided to give it a try and we're glad we did. The food was really good, and John took care of us. His recommendations were excellent and definitely made the experience even better. The atmosphere was nice, and I recommend making a reservation, especially if you want to make sure you can see the belly dance show on Saturdays. The only downside for us was that the chairs were a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, we had a very good experience and would definitely come back.

After my brother visited Casa Mariano about a year ago and strongly recommended it, we finally made…read moreour way there last Friday. The reservation process was easy, when I called to ask about the corkage fee ($25), they answered quickly and directly. Upon arrival, we were seated in the adjacent room since the main dining area was full, but the secondary room was comfortable and quiet, with only one other table in use. Our server was extremely friendly, offered thoughtful recommendations, and gave us plenty of space to enjoy our food and wine. Their wine glasses are excellent, and everyone we interacted with was warm and welcoming. We started with the Ossobuco Croquettes, truly some of the best we've ever had. For the main course, we ordered the special of the day: an apple wood short rib braised for eight hours, served with risotto and a Caesar salad. The combination was phenomenal. The short rib was incredibly rich, generously portioned, easily enough for two, and we still took a quarter of it home. To finish, we had a honey ice cream with pear tartar that was absolutely off the charts. We had an incredible experience overall. We also met Williams, one of the chef owners, and we're already planning to bring my CWG (Couple Wine Group) back for a blind tasting paired with their fantastic food.

My only complaint was that the lighting was way too bright but I am guessing for dinner the lighting is more dim and cozy. It is a Mediterranean restaurant so the decor had lots of blues and whites and wood and it all worked. Our server had an emergency and she had to quickly leave but the young man who took over, Wazhun, could not have been kinder. Our food was delicious and nicely prepared. We had the short rib empanadas and they were bursting with a well seasoned and juicy short rib filling. We also ordered the Roasted Cauliflower au gratin and omg was that amazing. Perfectly roasted and tender cauliflower in a creamy, goat cheese sauce but it didn't taste too goat cheesey. The sauce was more creamy with the perfect amount of cheese - amazing. Very delicious. My mom had the lasagna, which had bechamel and bolognese and she was raving about it for days. My sister had the pumpkin ravioli. The raviolis were cooked perfectly and had some crispy prosciutto on top. The delicate sauce was creamy and decadent but not heavy. Naughty but worth every bite. My husband had the lentil and quinoa salad and I never thought I would like those grains together but the lemony dressing and the addition of feta and sun dried tomatoes made a dish that is s very healthy also taste really great. I had the butternut squash salad with salmon and I didn't realize how much I liked it until I stopped to take a sip of my wine and the salad was almost gone. The salmon was a generous portion, cooked perfectly and was on the side. The squash was sweet, sliced into thin rounds and presented almost like carpaccio with arugula and goat cheese on top and the maple dressing tied it all together. We also ordered a delicious, crisp, and earthy bottle of Sicilian wine and finished off our meal with a creamy, hazelnut tiramisu. All in all a fantastic meal and we will be back.
