my mama says it best.... yumm, delish!
kicking myself for waiting so long to visit chef marc's new space...
overall...from start to finish really good and solid
....and the new restaurant space....swoon!!! it was like going to sleep with a so-so efficient 5 and waking up next to a brilliant adonis 9. perhaps the mind is even fooled that the food just tastes better or the flaws are less striking in this prettier, more intimate and warm space.
service was very good and I am particularly very thankful as we had the mature and senior set in tow.
burrata...probably skip next time..plated cut in half..saltines sticking out of each half...weird
carozza..safe app for the table..good and well safe..who doesn't like gooey mozzarella
portabella app...ohhhh soooo good and love the fresh spinach to cut the richness, perhaps my entree next time
our mains...all winners - veal cremini, chix piccata, osso buco, meat ravioli and eggplant parm....
eggplant parm in particular so thin and really just perfectly executed. but picking a favorite would be terribly difficult.
two not so perfect parts...on a thursday evening two servers for the entire dining room..service wasn't lacking but perhaps another body besides runners would have made the meal a bit more timely.
second...painfully reporting that the pasta side served along with the veal, eggplant and chicken dishes...not good, at all. a real downer frankly. mushy pasta and the simple tomato sauce lacked something...salt perhaps. deff next time we will order a cut pasta with more tooth.
the fam loved that chef marc came to the table to describe the evening specials. he really does make you feel welcome and shows his passion for what he does so well.
