| - I am very pleased with my experience at Scaddabush (Italian slang for a little of this and a little of that).
Went for lunch, we made reservation for 11:45 a.m. I was greeted right away by the hostess.
Scaddabush is a beautiful restaurant. It certainly is a very inviting and cozy place to dine, exposed brick wall (YEAH!!), soft lighting and long communal tables have real candles!
Our server was friendly and went over the menu as it was our first time dining at Scaddabush. Their mozzarella & pasta are made fresh daily, in-house! She recommended meatballs (took them years to perfect).
Two of us shared spaghetti and stuffed meatball and bianca pizza. Scaddabush offers Tuscan style long flat bread pizza. Pizza comes with pizza scissors, makes it easy to share.
The best part, after our food came, another server showed up with fresh parmesan cheese with a cheese grater and black pepper. Generous amount of cheese and pepper was sprinkled on our pasta and pizza. Basically she won't stop until you tell her to. Awesome!
Meatball: we got the stuffed meatball (stuffed with mozzarella cheese)!! It was to die for! It's pretty big,~1/2 pound, made with angus beef, ricotta cheese and parsley and marinated with garlic, black pepper, porcini mushrooms and olive oil. The sauce has little bit of parmesan and pancetta for flavour and it's so damn good. It's probably the best meatballs I've ever had. Spaghetti was perfectly cooked al dante.
Bianca pizza has caramelized onions, roasted garlic and grape tomatoes, semi-sundried tomatoes and mozzarella cheese. The thin crust was cooked perfectly and there was generous amount of toppings. Very flavourful pizza.
The portions were big, we were stuffed and unfortunately didn't have any room for dessert.
Our water glasses were never empty.
Excellent food, awesome ambience, great service.. what more can you ask for?
I can't wait to go back!
