| - Amazing birthday dinner on Friday night for my husband!
Start to finish. And what a finish (see pics ) with a talented very inherently kind genuine and professional server Scott! As we understood from our hostess it was his first night. Congrats Scott on first class service. We never would have known. He is a keeper!!!
Him being new and seasoned patrons, how amazing was it he introduced us to a great new wine selection that we both enjoyed. Also ensured my cocktails had my request of sliced orange every time (cough cough-YES! more than one) it was a celebration people
I decided to do a different meal this night from what I always choose. The chicken parmigiana defies imagination or any salad, handmade burrata YUM!! Tuna tartare calamari fritti, or angel hair pomodoro.
Craving a steak but didn't want a heavy stomach- Steak frites was the answer, it is AlWAYS so consistently good simple yet perfect and left me satisfied.
My husband tried and true favorites.... the arugula salad which is SO much more than the title suggests. TRY IT! Gorgeous and delicious,
along with his favorite dinner of all time, Tagliatelle Bolognese. He disappoints himself if we go elsewhere for dinner, ordering this plate, thinking he is at bistro, with their version the best we have experienced.
Their panna cottta desert special in indeed special. Light seemingly simple but always a perfect custard. Birthday treats sent from kitchen were fresh small glasses of limoncello. I forgot how good they make it!! Wow! Like visiting my Italian friends back east.
Surprise Zeppoli. Remind me of home, my Italian neighbor, neighborhood Italian feasts in the streets with knock your socks of fresh food .
Listen if warm pillows of fresh dough lightly fried sprinkled in sugar accompanied by special dipping sauces doesn't make a person happy there is no help for any of us.
We can't thank the team here enough for the great night.!!
Brandon!!!!!! our favorite manager, in town, is always present, talking with customers, bringing orders out, getting drinks to the right tables, discreetly checking in or stopping by for a longer hello if he can. I'm so impressed with his care and regard for us and all his customers. Thank you Brandon. You are wonderful.
NOW it's my secret wish (that I share with the world wide internet ?) that when I come by I WON'T see you --as you will be off on a wonderful exciting tasty vacation to fill you right up for the busy season. Dedication and passion needs time away for reflection ;)
Much love and thanks~ lolita and dante
