| - WHAT A PLACE!
You enter the establishment and the decor is modern, clean, and well done. The hostess was flexible and allowed us to gather at the bar for some tasty cocktails, the ladies had a mixture of custom libations put together by a seasoned Bartender who also would entertain you with magic (Xavier). (House Cab is "Justin"? Not familiar but was delicious, also have Matchbook by the glass which is wonderful as well)
When we finally sat, the table had a sense of intimacy as you were almost enclosed in our section. As it added a sense of privacy, it allowed our six top to let loose and enjoy the evening.
(The Food): First off the meat smells and looks amazing.. At first you think it is extremely expensive, but to put things in perspective you could literally split the 36 Oz Rib Eye between three people, which Evoke actually suggests!
Anyway, we began with the Crudo, Himachi & Escolar (similar to white Tuna - Butter)
Well Portioned and Well presented and delicious!
Next we enjoyed the pasta's! They were out of the Gnocchi but had a fresh batch being made, so we waited. Well worth the wait! Airy, Light, Pillows! Large Lump Crab and Pancetta made my and my buddies evening... Ravioli, unreal, Bucantini the hostess said she dreams about and she is right, it is amazing!
Review is way too long, so I think everyone gets the point.. This is a Gem!
One flaw, they need to have some sort of background music.. They need music!
I will return and look forward to trying the entire menu.. Very Impressed!
