We started with the calamari. Very lightly fried and great batter but not enough calamari. I felt like I was just eating the batter which is fine for some but not for a seafood nut like me. My friends raved about the butter and bread that came to the table.
I had the seafood linguine. I was bummed two clams weren't open. I am not of the school that will go ahead and open them anyway. I couldn't risk getting sick. But the rest of the seafood was great. I liked the three large shrimp best of the clams and mussels also in the dish. What sold me was the claim the sauce had 8 tomatoes in it. I love tomatoes and the sauce was nicely playing up the flavors of the seafood as well as the basil.
Service was great, the wait staff provided the ladies with dark napkins so we could be lint free.
We also enjoyed their rendition of the birthday song a la opera style. The birthday tiramisu was very interesting since it came in a ramekin and we could not figure out what it was at first with the thick layer of whipped cream and fresh berries.
