| - How can you not try a place that calls itself a really, really nice restaurant, serving tapas and hot dogs? Right? We sniffed it out, and the scent was just what our olfactory glands were seeking.
It's not a "mis-nose-mer" - this place is really, really nice. It's funky, it's hip, and you enter under, yes, a big nose.
The bread is soft and distinctly bread-like, and the balsamic was quite pungent and bold, we loved it. We had the olives to go along with our reasonably-priced bottle of wine, and settled on the pork belly and scallop appetizer. The scallops - seared right on the nose, were swimming in a nice sauce. I was torn between the short ribs and grassfed rib-eye, and our server recommended the rib-eye. She was not wrong. It was cooked perfectly, seared nicely, seasoned to my liking, and liberally sauced in a delightful mushroom jus. My husband had the involtini, pulled pork wrapped in steak - you've got to be kidding me - it was out of this world! We weren't in the dessert mood, but had some coffee, and a double-espresso with whipped cream for me, very well done.
Follow your senses!
