| - I made a reservation here online for the wrong weekend but the hostess promptly seated us anyway.
The BF and I rolled into the restaurant in extremely casual clothing - shorts, tshirt, hoodie, flip flops - and boy did we stand out like a sore thumb. In fact, it was one of the first things we noticed. Everyone was dressed in nice evening wear. My apologies!! I'm from California, where even at the nicest restaurants, people wear tshirts and jeans!
Anyway, they sat us anyway (they'll still take our money, is what the BF said). The server recommended some stuff and took our order. I got the gnocchi, which was the only vegetarian dish on the menu and I was sort of unsure about it because I had tried gnocchi before and didn't like it.
This gnocchi was different! It was REALLY good. It was lightly fried and had just the right amount of seasoning. Topped with kale, tomatoes, and celery. The only downside was it was a bit greasy so my stomach couldn't handle eating the entire dish in one sitting.
The BF got raw clams (which he liked, but said he prefers oysters to clams) and the duck dish, which he ate the whole thing.
I wish we had room for dessert because I would've loved to try their creme brulee...
Next time!!
