| - We went to Kit Kat, just as probably everybody does, before attending a show in the Theatre District, and under some time constraints with a group of 6 people.
Our server was extremely helpful and friendly. After hanging our coats, seating us, and taking drink orders, she indicated what menu items would take shorter or longer times and fit our time constraints to get to our show. She also listed off a monumental list of specials with detailed descriptions that might better have been delivered in printed format because I had forgotten the earlier specials as she went on.
There was an excellent selection of wine. I do dispute the Yelp rating of $$ for the pricing because if you select any 2 courses (app and main, or main and dessert) it will likely come to over $30 before drinks. I personally rate the pricing as $$$.
Pricing aside, the group were happy with their food. I split a caesar salad with my accompaniment and we found it was appropriately sized for 2 people before receiving our main courses.
I had the Osso Bucco Milanese. It said on the menu that it is served with fettucine. I love Osso Bucco for the bone marrow. I had never had it like this before. It was in an acidic tomato sauce and served over the fettucine.
My previous experiences with Osso Bucco have been in a red-wine au jus with root vegetables and potatoes, which I think I prefer; but this was nice to try for something different.
The meat was tender and the shank bone crosscut was large. Another member of our group ordered the same thing; but he got 2 smaller bones and he was too polite to pick up the bones to get to the marrow since his utensils would not fit. Poor him! I never let politeness or cleanliness get between my food and my belly.
Part-way through our meal, an older man came by to ask us how everything was and to refill our wine glasses from the bottle on the end of the table. My date told me that she saw him on a CBC documentary recently called "The Condo Game" and that he fought to retain the restaurant strip on King Street in the theatre district and prevent it from becoming the service-less, character-less style of Fleet Street west.
My date had the seafood linguine and said it was delicious. I didn't manage to do any food sharing on this particular outing, so I'll have to take her word for it; but she also mentioned that the server and owner were exceptionally friendly.
For me the food was average good food; but the server and owner elevated the experience. I hope to return to try their pastas or veal chop next time.
