| - Oil, vinegar and spices for dipping your bread in is always a good start for me. We had a lovely early dinner at Caffe Boa, with dim lighting, a festive holiday tree and pleasant, attentive service. The specials sounded delicious but, we went traditional instead. We shared a half order of Sonoma Salad, (organic mixed greens, dried mission figs, sliced apples, fresh bufala mozzarella, with a raspberry vinaigrette). It was big enough to share, and each have a nice pre-pasta portion.
For the entree, I was delighted by the AGNOLOTTI BOA, which are, as per the website, "Raviolis filled with a soft blend of portabella and cremini mushrooms in a flavorful sauce of tomato and seasoned cream." My dining partner had the lasagna, which was delicious, but too much even for him. We took it home and enjoyed it again the next day. That, of course meant we had room for dessert, so we went for espressos and the housemade tiramisu. It was light and fluffy and, again, a giant portion.
Service was very pleasant and not rushed. The patio looks cute and romantic for a return visit.
