| - I'm so glad my bf knows people that know great places that serve up good food.
Overall experience here is definitely four stars. Came here not knowing what to expect-- it was busy, small but had that feeling of authenticity, friendly staff, tables covered with butcher paper. Although I almost felt out of place walking in here.My bf and I came here wearing jeans, t-shirt and flip flops and everyone else looked so fancy. But we were able to be seated immediately without being given a hard time so I guess dress code wasn't an issue.
Service was quick despite of the traffic. We immediately started off with calamari which was excellent, and also the garlic bread--nicely toasted with some butter and ofcourse garlic. With the help of our server, I got myself a cocktail called the "berry explosion."And it was excellent, not too strong and was berry delicious.
For the entree, my bf ordered the "Crazy Alfredo"--sausage, chicken, mushrooms, and shrimp. That was actually real good, I say better than what I ordered, which was the Orange Roughy with angel hair pasta. It was a wee underflavor and wow that fish was fishy. Not a big fan of it but yet again there's plenty of food to choose from and there will be a next time.
The place is not that cheap either. 70 bucks including tip for this dinner but it was worth it, minus the fish.. sort of. And we thought it was busy when we got here, but it was mad busy on the way out. They do take reservations and I highly recommend that.
