Perfect in every way. When you walk in, you're greeted by the sweetest of wait staff here. Garlic-filled olives on the table with an ample serving of different types of breads (some with salt, some just plain, some crisp bread) as you wait. We had the house wine and a gin and tonic for our drinks, and they were all quite satisfactory. The house salads are delicious: an assortment of greens (mesclun, iceberg) and raw yellow + red peppers and sliced carrots and red onions, all cupped into a long cucumber. It was so creative/inventive!
They made a special linguine with tomato sauce and mushrooms for me, it was so delicious, as the pasta was served al dente and the sauce was so good it needed nothing else.
Also had a taste of the fish dish with a saffron and raisin cream sauce. It sounds gross but it was absolutely ridiculous. If I come back, I would order that and suggest you do, too.
Indulged and got some chocolate and pistachio gelato to finish, which was served in a chocolate cookie bowl. Had an espresso as well, perfect sidekick to end the meal. They also offered us an iced lemon drink at the end to cleanse our palettes.
I would recommend this place to anyone in the area or folks who are visiting. Its so nice that the owner comes around to ask you how everything is, and all the waiters are spouting out Italian phrases. It's worth every penny! Enjoy... read more
