There is a lot of good to be said about this beautiful new restaurant in North Scottsdale. The restaurant itself is lovely with a patio that will be awesome when the weather permits.
The service was fantastic but I let the waiter choose my wine from the choice of 2 Pinot Noirs and he chose the more expensive one. I expected that but hoped to be surprised or at least advised. He was attentive, informative ( other than the wine choice) and efficient.
The food was good with a Capitol G. Not great. Everything needed salt and no, I am not an habitual salt user. The portions were huge, the ingredients fresh but everything was flat. It needed salt AND there is no salt and pepper on the table.
The bread should be better and tho it is different, the hummus they served with it doesn't really fit in an Italian restaurant and did not have much flavor.
All in all we enjoyed our dinner and will be back, just this time we will bring our own salt shaker!
