| - Let me start by saying that the best part of my meal was the bread and the salad. I started with the Roasted Beet salad and it was excellent. I then did something wild and crazy. I ordered an entrée that I was not familiar with, Gnocchi Pink Basil. I thought I would be adventurous and try something different. The Gnocchi Pink Basil is described as "In a Pink Vodka Sauce with Pancetta & English Peas." I had no idea what Gnocchi or Pancetta was, but I know what Pink Vodka Sauce is. That is what drove me to order this entrée in the first place. My bad. This dish may be seriously on point. However, I did not care for it at all. That's on me and not the entrée. However, the Pink Vodka Sauce in my estimation was not on point and this is where I felt the dish fell flat. My next surprise came when the side of "Seasonal Roasted Vegetables" that I ordered came to my table. Their idea of Seasonal Roasted Vegetables came in the form of sautéed Broccolini. Huh? I like greens, but I did not care for this. Next time I will be sure to ask what the Seasonal Roasted Vegetables are before I order. I have to tell you that at this point I am completely confused. I am looking at both items in front of me and I don't care to eat either. And you have to understand, I am like the kid in the commercial, Mikey. Like Mikey, I will eat just about anything. Heck, if I can't eat it I will take it home and try it later. I am not shy about taking leftovers home. Not this time. Unfortunately, our waitress was completely unaware. It was Saturday evening and the store was totally jam up. As a result she wound up in the weeds and had that "Deer in Headlights" look. Poor baby. We were going to share a dessert, but it was all we could to get, and pay our check. That said, I am looking forward to returning during the week and trying something less adventurous.
