| - As the reviews run the gamut, I was prepared for anything. It is Restaurant Week, so it was really busy, and the initial service did start off a little slow. Our server, however, was apologetic and overall the service was above average.
I ordered beets & citrus, and it was delicious. However, the portion size was fairly small. Although I wanted scallops, I steered clear based on "overcooked" reviews. For my entree, I had the raviolo-again, not a large portion, but very good. The goat cheese and tomato filling melts in your mouth. The outer edges of the raviolo were a little undercooked. I like my pasta al dente but this was a little tougher. Dessert was the lemon mascarpone cheesecake with honey and candied pistachios. Although I didn't detect much of a lemon flavor, it was GOOOOD. And the best part, served with a side of strawberry/rhubarb compote topped with a scoop of gelato. Score! Like two desserts for the price of--well almost two desserts at $9.00.
The only thing that was not so enjoyable was the sound level. It was as loud as a college bar, seriously. I had to almost yell to carry on a conversation. Poor planning in the design phase in my opinion. The food was good enough that I will definitely return if I can find out when their slow times are. The noise level was too much otherwise.
