| - love this place. such a cute date night type of place or even a nice dinner with friends just to catch up. its fairly small on the inside, but they do have outdoor seating as well, as long as the weather permits. the decor is very rustic with piney wood lining the walls and very natural looking rocks/sand/plant centerpieces for the tables with an open kitchen.
food:
- tasting board - fish - everything was amazing. smoked mackerel, tuna tartar with strawberries, and shrimp cocktail served with pickled shallots. we devoured this!
- pork buttons - pork ribs seasoned with lemongrass. loved this dish. watch out for the bones though. we didnt realize there were bones until we bite into it.
- chorizo meatballs - the sauce is amazing, and the bread they serve with it is so toasty on the outside and soft on the inside
- perogies - served with sausage gravy. soo yummie! i couldnt stop eating these. the potato filling was so soft and light and the gravy added the right flavor to round it out.
- green beans - surprisingly super delish. cooked with asian flavors - garlic, sweet soy sauce, and sesame seeds. it wouldve been the same way that i wouldve prepared them had i been eating at home.
- fish cakes - this was my least favorite of all the things that we ordered. the cakes were a bit flakey and fell apart to easily and the mango chipotle chutney that was served with it had a slightly ketchup taste to it, which was very strange.
- fiasco gelato - coffee cardamon served with a waffle cone and wine infused cherry. the gelato was amazing, as it most fiasco gelatos!
they dont have a very long wine list, but they have a very nice selection of wines from around the world. fell in love with their red wine from portugal so we just kept ordering that. they also have a lot of different cocktails that sounded delicious, but i wasnt in the liquor mood.
overall, great experience. they also brought out the check with vanilla cupcakes with espresso frosting which was also really good. lovely meal with a good variety of flavors!! total was $120 including tip for 2 people and totally worth every penny!
