| - My boyfriend INSISTED that we went to Mitchell's for our anniversary dinner and I couldn't argue it. I'm so glad we did.
We ordered SO much food. We started with some salads, he got the house salad, but he wasn't real fond of the dressing - it was like a ginger-y vinaigrette. Honestly I couldn't eat too much of it. I got the Ceasar salad which was delicious! Then we moved to an appetizer - mussels! First off, the size of this app is huge! Not too big that you can't eat afterwards, but definitely share with 1 or two people! The mussels were incredible and tasted so fresh! I also sipped from a strawberry mule, which had fresh strawberries in it - YUM!
Now, the entrees - I got the Shanghai Shrimp + Salmon + Sea Scallops and wow, I cannot emphasize enough how fresh the seafood tastes. It's such a difference! This dish was amazing! Has a little spice to it, but it's a large portion and you get the fantastic trio! I probably could've done without so much spinach piled under the salmon, but definitely not a deal breaker (eat your spinach kids!). My boyfriend got the swordfish of course! He finished his whole dish so that's all I have to say about that.
Previous to coming to Mitchell's, I was told to save room for dessert, or at least order it. GUYS, the sizes of these desserts! Dining in, we split a mini shark fin pie because we previously saw one go by which was full sized and I'm pretty sure it could feed a civilization! I had to take a piece of carrot cake home, which weighed about 50lbs! (Not really but it's the size of a mini cake!) Although these desserts sound terrifying, I highly recommend getting something to take!
I cannot wait for another excuse to go to Mitchell's. I do recommend reserving a table online or call ahead of time because it does get crowded. We reserved ahead of time, arrived, and were seating instantly. The service was great and it was just a really nice dinner.
