| - Wow.
I had no idea the dinner I would have here would be this delicious when I walked in.
My friend had found this place on Google and said it has potential, so we trekked here in the cold with a reservation on a Sunday night. Apparently you really should reserve in this not that tiny place because they do get busy and full. Luckily, their private dining area upstairs were not booked, so they made room for us. They led us back outside the front door, went to the staircase next door and entered a beautiful seating area complete with a fullbar and we were seated at a booth.
They have a very tiny menu and most of their entrees are $18. We had the Open shrimp ravioli and steak frites. Honestly, I can't describe this ravioli..it was more like large pieces of flat noodle with shrimp on top. The pasta was SO fresh cooked perfectly del dente and shrimp and sauce was absolutely mouthwatering. The steak was juicy and seasoned perfectly and cooked to order. The fries that came with steak was seasoned well and it also came with a special mayo that was a perfect complement.
For dessert we had their maple creme brulee, which was actually kind of disappointing. But I can't knock off a star for this because the entrees were THAT good.
Oh, let me not forget about the bread with the best crust i've ever eaten (i normally hate eating crust) that came with garlic butter. I had four pieces. I never eat bread.
We also ordered a bottle of Chianti, but unfortunately they were out and gave us something that was similar (forgot what). The wine, as recommended, was great. Our service was average, although I feel like it would have been better if our server wasn't the only person up in the private dining area who also tended the bar.
I hope to come back more often!
