| - Ladies night out!
Service was perfection. Thank you Courtney!
The food was delicious. The stand out appetizer was the charred octopus w/ calabrian chile butter although the grilled asparagus with duck egg, candied bacon and foie gras hollandaise was nothing to dismiss.
For entrees, we had the spaghettini (from the pasta menu), the scallops (with white chocolate beurre blanc), the pork rib chop and I personally ordered the marsala braised short ribs with Brussels sprouts, hazelnuts, currants and vanilla sweet potatoes. Go with friends because you are going to want to try EVERYTHING. You'll be happy you did because everything was amazing. My short ribs were flavorful and were so tender, the meat VIRTU-ally melted right off the bone.
For wine, I ordered the Coto de Hayas Garnacha...a few times. When it's my time to go, I think drowning in that celestial chocolaty wine aroma is definitely on my short list of ways to die. *I can't remember the name of my cocktail, it had blueberries, shaved lemon zest, whiskey and some other delightful flavors in it and I think I'll go back just to ask them how to make it at home.
The only thing I was unhappy with was their designated parking lot across the street. They really should have some lights over there because high heels, unlevel surfaces, wine/cocktails and dark walkways are not a pleasant combination. Luckily, their food and drinks are so good that it may be worth breaking an ankle.
*I have just been informed that my cocktail was named "Fortified Truth".
