This place was actually a house and I love it. It's up scale yet homie and the service is more then kind. Me and my beau went during happy hour, which is only downstairs but our waitress let us sit upstairs away from the crowd. Appetizers were half priced along with most alcohol.
We started with my beau's favorite Calamari and I ordered grilled vegetables. One word, perfect. Both were light and pleasant and didn't fill us up to to much. The portion size was def. enough for more then just the 2 of us but remember the Calmari was his FAVORITE. I ordered a moscato along with it while he had a simple beer.
For dinner I had the waitress pick for me while my beau tried the Chicken Fresco. The Chicken Fresco came with their homemade marinara and a balsamic glaze. Not impressed, to plain for me but I grew up eating nothing but ethnic and flavor riched food. The beau thought the same. I was surprised with the Tri Tortellini and was happy. The pinenuts gave this plate exactly what it needed but it's nothing I couldn't make at home.
The wait was a bit long for dinner because of our waitress and chef miscommunicating and we ended up with a free dessert! We picked the strawberry wontons. When it came out the plate looked so pretty!!! But not with three wontons and a scoop of ice cream... Def a dessert for one not two. Needless to say it was very very good. I can say this dish was the best part of the experience.
Overall, 4 out of 5 because the flavors are for people who are used to that style of cooking... I come from an ethnic family so flavors are a big deal to me!
