| - I had heard amazing things about Bice from my boyfriend, whose uncle frequents the restaurant, so we decided to try it out as a belated Valentine's day meal.
The inside of the restaurant seems a bit small, but that only adds to the intimacy of the place. The tables were well spaced so it wasn't crowded.
THE FOOD: We started off with the "Fried crab cake, lime and black pepper mayo, grilled corn, cucumber and coriander salsa" ($17). I don't normally eat seafood, let alone any kind of shellfish, but this was AMAZING. The mayo was crazy good...you know those Miss Vickie's Lime and Cracked Black Pepper chips? It tasted like that. Only in MAYO FORM!
For the main course, the boyfriend ordered the
"Rigatoncini, Italian sausage, tomatoes, smoked caciocavallo and bufal" ($24) whereas I had the "Pappardelle "rosé" with mozzarella di bufala and fresh basil" ($24). The pappardelle was cheesey, but not too cheesey, and in my opinion, was better than the rigatoncini, which was good as well.
The only reason why Bice doesn't warrant 5 stars is because the wait staff is made up of young boys, who are either overly eager, clearing our dishes and cutlery as soon as we had put it down, or super forgetful. But other than that, everything was memorable.
