| - After receiving an email from the owner, I realized that these guys have totally changed the menu from the time I visited them. So as we live very close to this restaurant, I decided to give them a try.
We went there on a Tuesday night and were promptly greeted by the staff. For appetizer we ordered the beef carpaccio and chicken croquettes. And as on Tuesdays it was half price pasta, we went for the sea food pasta (12$) to share. Also they had an amazing special on steam whistle (4$ a pint).
Appetizer arrived in 20 minutes (a little bit long for a not busy night), after having the first couple of bites, I was so glad that I decided to try this restaurant for a second time. Both appetizers were excellent. Generous portions (Big contrast, compared to my previous visit) and delicious taste. Chicken croquettes were crispy and hot, served with a cranberry jelly which remind me of a very good thanks giving dinner :D (Highly recommended).
Our main dish arrived in another 30 minutes, which was the only disappointment in our dining experience. However, totally worth the wait. The creamy pasta was with generous amount of fresh scallops, shrimp and salmon. Good enough for both of us.
We took a glimpse at the desert menu. To be honest, we did not find anything that pops out but they have all the familiar classics that you always look for (e.g. creme brulee) However, we did not have room for anything more.
Overall, a very good dining experience. It is a very good sign when restaurants listen to feed backs and improve themselves. These guys are on correct track. I really like to try other items on their menu specially the saffron risotto. Also, make sure to check out their specials, for example, half price pasta Tuesdays is a great deal.
