Let me start off saying the decor of this place is very beautiful and modern. I was really excited to try this restaurant. The menu is very long and the waiter explained that most of the dishes were small plates. We wanted to try a good variety. I felt like everything needed to be explained and it was exhausting. Everyone around us were saying they were friends of the chef so they got a "special" menu.
We started with..
-Calabrian Cauilfower- This was okay, had tons of olive oil on it.
-Bellwether Farms Ricotta-The ricotta tasted extra sweet on the bread.
Next we wanted to try a few different pastas. I am a big fan of fresh made pastas.
-Agnolotti- This one was various ground up types of salami type meats, with a chicken broth poured on top. It was okay, very small.
-Strozzapreti- This is one of the only pastas they don't make in house. It was okay. It was a very simple dish.
-Casoncelli-This dish looks beautiful but is extremely sweet. Its like eating a pie. I'm glad it was small because anymore would be too much.
I hate to say it but the pasta didn't change my life. I am willing to pay for fresh pastas but this just didn't do it for me.
The bread and butter on the plate was pretty and simple. It had good flavor.
I had the 7oz Creekstone Filetto. This was the best part of the whole meal, the filet was cooked nicely. The cheese potatoes were like a little too rich, but good.
This would be a good place to get a glass of wine and dress up, but not much more. I feel like a lot of the dishes were overrated and underwhelming. The menu will be expensive to pay for the rent at Scottsdale and Lincoln. Nothing I ate makes me want to come back. Loved the decor. That is all.
