We had a very pleasant experience at Scarpetta on Monday night.
The food was 5 star all the way in our minds, however our Service was a bit hit and miss.
Luckily the support staff was really fantastic. The menu itself can be a bit intimidating so I looked to our server for advice, he briefly listed ingredients to me, not taste which is very important for me.
Also one big thing we DID NOT LIKE, by any means, was not only being served from our right but from behind. During the course of service the staff kept reaching from behind in our booth which was not just annoying, but actually uncomfortable. We felt like school kids who were practically told to sit still. It was very odd....
The hits
were the short rib app, and the gazpacho soup
the foie gras and duck ravioli, which isn't as gamey as is sounds surprisingly and spaghetti was tremendous! :)
