| - The Dressler family... and not merely those folks that are blood related to John and Kim Dressler, who spearhead Rare Roots Hospitality (yes, I had such a good experience last night that I looked them up - and we were also fortunate to meet and chat with the very amiable John), but all those who are part of their familial-feeling company are all enthusiastic, professional, knowledgeable and better than all that, make you feel like part of the family as well while you are in one of their establishments.
There are a lot of great restaurants and eateries in and around the Queen City; some are great most of the time, some are great on one thing but miss the mark just a bit on another, but rarely do you find a restaurant where every part of your experience is on pointe - from the service to the space to the offerings, the innovation in uniquely crafted cocktails and thoughtfully prepared plates that make you excited to venture out of your 'comfort zone' - every SINGLE time. The Dressler's have found and kept talented, engaging people in all levels of their staff or 'extended family' so much so that nothing ever gets overlooked and exceptional is the norm. You just don't find it done better than this - not even in New York, LA or Chicago.
As you may have guessed, I am a fan of other Dressler ventures - love Dogwood Southern Table in Southpark and recommended Dressler's to a colleague who raved about his evening. I should have known the experience would be no less but completely different at Fin and Fino - a bright star tucked beneath the Q.C. Skyline. Our server Andrew (and I honestly hesitate to call these folks servers as titles can be misleading depending on where you work; these professionals are not the same level of staff that you might find at your local wing place or watering hole) was so adept (as they always are at a Dressler's establishment) at recommendations, noting our individual preferences and palates, that it would be hard to adequately describe the scents, tastes and sensations of the meal that we enjoyed last night. Suffice it to say, there is something for everyone, and everyone will feel welcome and at home. Without describing each dish or cocktail (try their sherries, you will be delighted and may find a new hobby!) I will just briefly note that the extensive list of oysters, the creative small plates and unique spirits were all memorable in their own right but were an epicurean symphony together. Make a reservation - you don't want to miss Fin & Fino.
