| - Lovely ambiance and really good food! I found this restaurant so pleasing to both eye and taste bud. Given we had reservations on a weeknight, there was no hassle getting seated and attentively served. The daily specials change frequently and offer some unique delights.
We started the meal with Bruschetta. It looked so appealing-piled(but not "Oh man I am making a mess") with mushrooms and fresh herbs (basil and surprise! mint). Again going with the theme of "looks NOT being deceiving," it tasted good. Next, I oped for two items from their daily specials- Chilled Potato, Fennel &Leek Soup and Pan Seared Scallops with leeks, parsley, tomato and olives (oh! Both dishes were 'enhanced" with black truffle oil! Yum!). I loved the soup-different ingredients combined for a smooth, light dish. My date had the wild caught Shrimp sauteed with olive oil, garlic, white wine, cherry tomatoes and parsley. All dishes were of the Antipasti categories and were filling enough for dinner.
Great place...cool tin ceilings, open, uncluttered dining space with tasty food. Will be a repeat "offender" for sure!
