| - This place was awesome! One of my friends who was having dinner with us was from Italy, the manager came over and started speaking to him in Italian. Extra points for that right there!! There were four of us and when we get together we like to try a bunch of different stuff and share, I hate asking for splits etc, I'd rather just order and put it in the center of the table. Some places frown upon that, or want to charge. this place brought us over some plates and made sure we had plenty of room at the table at all times. If we finished a plate it was cleared pretty quick. Service was great but not overbearing . We started with octopus carpaccio- I have had this at a few different places, and sometimes I am nervous about getting it. This was absolutely melt in your mouth amazing and left you wanting more. We had ordered mussels for our next app, the sauce was great, slightly disappointed as I like New Zealand mussels better, these were PEI, which not their fault I should have asked. They were good so I don't want it to come out wrong.
For entrees we had the veal chop first which I honestly wish I didn't have to share. It was that good and worth every penny of the 68 dollars they charge for it. Tender and cooked to perfection.
Our second entree was the sole, this unfortunately had the absolute opposite of the veal. No flavor, very bland and do not recommend. The entire table agreed, I did politely tell the manager when he came back to chat.
Third entree was a pasta with a veal ragout, simple and perfect. Fresh Tagliatelle frutti de mare and the right amount of sauce. Lobster meat, shrimp and scallops.. This was amazing..
It was my birthday and they bought the table desserts which was a really nice touch. Would absolutely go back...
Awesome place with great service - disappointed with the sole but can't win them all, I'd be more upset if we weren't sharing the dishes and got stuck with something I didn't like
