What a great place to chill! The Livermore has a totally Italian menu (odd because of the English name) but the desserts were delicious. Keeping with my tradition if desserts first, I was impressed that they were so interesting and simple and delish! I will be going back for dinner!
Walking in the front door was a little confusing but once you realize that it's ok to step into the kitchen to get to the door it made you feel like you were home. To the left, you walk into a bar that had a San Fran feeling about it. Low lighting, romantic dark chandeliers, old books and bottles of whiskey, wood bars and tables, decorated the room and made it so cozy. If you sit opposite the bar looking out the window you get a view of the Presby church on Baum which I had no idea was that gorgeous before visiting the Livermore!
On to the desserts, I had the goat cheese, lavender, mint panna cotta ....ummmm. yum. I mean panna cotts is every where but these guys can play. The flavor medley, perfect.
Next I had the olive oil and polenta cake. It was like grandma's poke cake where they poke holes and drizzle a lemon simple syrup over it. It was truly delish with its fresh whipped cream and crumbled pistachio topping.
All I can say is go. Go now.
