| - I love Touch. It is a neighborhood gem that is often overlooked and forgotten about.
We went last Friday for happy hour, arriving around 7p. There were not too many folks in there, most were dining, a few at the bar. The sushi came out while we were there and it was delicious...bacon in sushi?!? Genius. I know people complain about the wait or lack of sushi, but people, IT IS FREE and worth it as an appetizer that costs you nothing.
Nothing compares to the service and food. Our server was wonderful. He was so nice and attentive. When we had questions about vegetarian options he offered to bring the chef out. We told him not necessary but about 10 minutes later the chef came out profusely apologizing for the delay and then talked to the table for about 10 minutes about various dishes and options. My friend, who is a pretty strict vegetarian, had the most questions and he elected to create her a meal instead of having her order off the menu. The chef came out a few more times checking on us and ensuring we liked what he created.
Our food was phenomenal. The Squash Ravioli was packed with flavor, the raviolis themselves were huge and it was savory. The Mushroom gnocchi was chockfull of various mushrooms, creating the perfect sauce to accompany the little gnocchis. The pizza was perfectly crusted and more than enough for 2 meals. And the individualized vegetarian meal? It started with pumpkin bisque that was heavenly. The main course was various small plates made up from veggie options on the menu; cheese and dried fruit, salad, Mediterranean gnocchi, all fantastic. To top it all off, with two Makers drinks, the free sushi, dinner and a tip my meal was still under $35.
When asking about drink concoctions the bar delivered. When asked about substitutions and ingredients, the chef catered to us. We asked a lot of questions. We had a few requests. Never did we hear a no. Instead everyone was more than happy to make it a wonderful experience!
I recommend Touch for eating, drinking or dancing the night away. I have never been disappointed and I truly look for the faults in restaurants.
