| - Great experience! This restaurant is beautiful inside and the attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the meal including the bread selection and awesome cocktails.
We had the tasting menu for $120 each. This included a take home menu, recipes, and signed picture of Giada. The following is included in the tasting menu: a small plate of antipasti (my only complaint is that it was too small), a pasta course, main course and then a free shot at the dessert cart. My party made full use of the dessert cart and tried many of the offerings. The dessert cart guys were very cool and encouraged us to try as much as we wanted. The cart had a huge selection of 4 ice cream, 4-5 cookies, a few tarts, 3 parfaits, and 3 cakes plus a few things I am probably forgetting. We got about 10 items off the cart and the highlights were the peanut butter and jelly parfait, peanut butter and chocolate cookie, and lemon ricotta cookie.
I am going on and on about the dessert, but the pasta and salmon we had was also very good. I really want to go back and I hope they open for lunch soon!
The highlight of the night was that Giada was there! She was very gracious and stopped for a moment so we could take pictures with her on her way out to catch a plane. It is good to see that she is very involved in the success of the restaurant over a month after they opened. It definitely shows in the quality of the food.
