We came this past Tuesday with 6:15pm dinner reservations to celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary and were graciously greeted and promptly seated.
Our server Ashley S was perfectly attentive. Around at just the right times of when you needed her. We were the only people in the dining room section for about 1/3 of the time of our stay and it eventually got busier as the meal went on.
I started with the Basil Lemon Drop Martini and my husband had the Strawberry Jalapeño Margarita. We were told that they recently revamped the menu and our server hadn't tried the drinks yet. My critic for her was that mine wasn't basil-y enough, but as the drink went on, more and more of the basil presented itself. Regardless, for drink round #2, we ordered two more of those margaritas. Those were so good. I'm planning on trying to recreate it at home.
For food, we started with the antipasto appetizer for 2. It was awesome to pick on along with our bread and oil. There was also an Italian sushi appetizer special that was intriguing, but alas we didn't get it. For our meals, I had the fettuccine alfredo with chicken special and my husband had the chicken saltimbocca. Both were absolutely delicious. My pasta noodles were light and not dense as fettuccine can sometimes be. It was one of those dishes were you're full from eating it so you throw in the towel, but it's still there in front of you begging to be eaten so you can't help yourself but to keep nibbling on it for ten more minutes than you should have.
Was the meal a tid-bit pricy, well yeah, but I feel that's how most restaurants seem to/need to be in this economy. The ambiance was classy, music was great and atmosphere was cool on a very hot summer day. read more
