| - stopped in last night while downtown n discovered a whole new world of deliciousness we didnt even know existed!!! the restaurant itself is very nice inside, well decorated n dimly lit and when u first walk in its got a little area where u can order by the slice to eat it there on barstools, we had done that before but opted to get a table this time. had a little bit of a wait, no biggie being that it was saturday night afterall. upon being seated we were immediately greeted by our server and drink orders were taken... when she returned heres what we ordered:
*caprese salad- 5/5 stars the grape tomatoes were so fresh they tasted like they had picked them right off the vine out back!! the mozzerella was fresh and had a wonderful smooth texture, the olives added a nice flavor and the bal vin dressing was subtle and oh-so-good!!
*calamari fritti (half spicy half reg)- 5/5 stars
although im not a huge calamari fan, i couldnt stop eating the spicy calamari!! it was fresh, fried perfectly crisp n it gave such a good kick! yes, im a sucker for the heat!!! came with both marinara and aioli sauce.
now for the pizza!! we got:
*the butcher- which is a thin crust pizza with ALL the meat basically :) the flavor of
this pizza is incomparable to any other pizza ive ever had, it was BOMB!! ... and thats coming from a self proclaimed 'pizza expert' who prefers no meat on my pizza (the occasional pepperoni being the only acception) but seriously. yes... so much YES.
*margherita- what can i say? delish!!!
during our time there our server was awesome! food was quick to come out and our drinks were NEVER empty, even when she got slammed! this girl should be running a school for servers or smthn, im telling you! excellent!
so, yes we had a great experience, yes we walked out tummies full and smiles on our faces and yes we will def be back for more!!!
annnd wouldve given 5 stars but the hostesses up front (all four of them just standing there) gave us the impression that they could give a $#!+ if we were there or not... once we got past that barrier it was all good tho ;) so glad we did!!
