There weren't that many street meat choices as like other festivals I had attended, so we decided to go to Sotto Voce. The menu was decent enough and surprisingly the wait to get a table on the patio wasn't too bad.
I understand it was busy there, but we had two different servers come to our table at multiple times. I know I'm not in the hospitality industry to understand logistics, but maybe some owners/managers handle customer service differently.
Anyway we ordered a white wine sangria which took quite a while to get. Compared to the red wine sangria we ordered a few weeks ago at Milagro, I don't know if it was worth the price. Hardly any fruits and it looked like more of a fruit punch.
We ordered a slew of appies - sliders, arancini and polenta fries. The polenta fries were probably the best part of the meals with the exception of the dipping sauce which was served in an espresso cup. The arancini and the sliders lacked flavour. I don't know if I really felt that pine nuts were needed in the sliders.
At the end, the manager (I assume) was apologetic for the food and service. She mentioned to us that it's "an experience" and hopes we come back to visit. Maybe she could tell we were disappointed. Who knows? This is why I jumped the rating from 2 to a 3.
