| - I've heard sooooooooooooooo much about this restaurant before I got here finally.
So my experience will be quite different from a regular person's visit because my brother rented out most of the restaurant for his birthday bash (about 60 people) so things I can't comment on are price and aspects of service.
First off, the place is sooooo cute. Loved every aspect of the actual restaurant. The servers were suuuper nice, the place was decorated really quirky and inviting, and you could tell that everyone working here looked really happy.
We had a special family style dinner for the party, in a few rounds
ROUND 1 Salads
1. Arugula with Goat Cheese and Walnuts- So good. I love arugula and goat cheese.
2. Spinach with Goat Cheese and Roasted Red Pepper - Again really good.
3. Tomato with Bocancini - The tomatoes were well seasoned, and the bocancinis were fresh. Weirdly no one at my table really liked the bocans., so i ended up with most of them, SCORE.
4. Italian Bread Salad - THIS WAS SO GOOD. I've never actually had anything like this before. Chunks of bread, with tomato, zuchini, turnips tossed in olive oil and something, really really enjoyed it.
ROUND 2
1. Calamari Fritti - This was good. Large chunks of calamari served with lemon wedges. I basically ate half the order. It was a touch overdone though, but suuuuuuuper tender.
Round 3 - PASTA ON PASTA ON PASTA
1. Lasagna - HANDS DOWN BEST THING OF THE NIGHT. Ugh soooo good. I've never had a lasagna as good as this. Tender noodles, large chunks of meat, delicious sauce, ugh. SO GOOD.
2. Linguini with zuchhini and tomato sauce - really good, the sauce was amazing.
3. Rotini with wild mushrooms - Not my favourite of the night. I think it was a bit burtn, not sure.
Main Course:
We had a choice of their selections, so I got to try a bit of everyone at the tables.
1. Sexy Duck Leg -- I got this. Not going to lie, it was suuuuuuuuuuuper salty. Like woah. The first layer (skin and meat) was barely edible, but once I pulled it aside it was SO GOOD. But hard to eat at first.
2. The Spicy Veal Barriciola sp? - Veal rolled in nuts and stuff cooked in a tomato sauce. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TENDER. Ufff. Really good.
3. THe Lamb Shank - Huge, braised, and delicious. Serveed with peas.
Sides:
1. Raddichio Salad - super bitter, but thats radicchio right?
2. Grilled Zuchinni - I LOVE grilled zuchinni. It's basically my favourite vege. And they did it perfectly.
The service was great, considering they had to serve 60 of us at the same time. These guys would've owned the first service of hell's kitchen. All the food came out timely, and we were all fed together. It was a bit of a wait at first, but thats because people were late for dinner.
I will definitely be back, and I want to give the sexy duck leg another go!
Thank you so much 7 numbers for hosting my brother's birthday, ad you guys rocked! :)
