| - I was in the matthews area and decided to checkout downtown Matthews. I spotted Sante and we decided to check it out, glad that we did.
This is a very charming little restaurant, nicely decorated with art from local artists and a great ambiance. Definetly a great spot for a romantic dinner.
We started with cocktails, I had the "Lovers" martini and my wife had the "Strawberry" martini, both were excellent, although the first round took quite a long time to receive.
We decided on the avacado egg rolls and gazpacho soup as appetizers, both appetizers were excellent and very flavorful. we wanted to try the crab and avacado towere, but they were out of this dish for the evening, maybe next time. We moved on to the beet salad and aragula salad, again both were very good.
For dinner I chose the Mustard crusted salmon, it was simply amazing and cooked perfectly. My wife went with the scallops and they too were PERFECT,
The service is very friendly and not overbearing. Most of the service staff appear to be very young, but they have definetly been trained well.
This restaurant is worth the drive from uptown and downtown Matthews has a great small town feel and there are enough other bars and restaurants in walking distance for a nice night out.
WELL DONE SANTE, KEEP IT UP!!!!
