| - Wow this place is fantastic. It is in a loft-like space with a separate room for the bar. The music is nice and not too invasive. The lighting is nice and soft. Nice wood tables with no tablecloths, which is what I would prefer. We went here for my wife's birthday, so I left a note in my reservation. They greeted us at the door and wished my wife a happy birthday and then sat us at this wonderful romantic corner booth.
My wife got some wine and I got a nice beer and we ordered our appetizer of risotto balls which were fantastic. We each got a salad (wife got Caesar, I got spinach pear), and they were also good. The main courses were absolutely amazing though. My wife got some gorgonzola gnocchi in an aurora sauce, which were just pillows of deliciousness. They were light and soft and the cheese exploded blissfully at the end into a perfect bite. I got the scallop and lobster ravioli which was quite good. They definitely know how to handmade their pasta well!
We were having such a good night so we each got coffee and dessert. The cappuccino was solid. My dessert, which was some kind of special pistachio and hazelnut mousse cheesecake, was about the best dessert I have ever had - light, not too sweet, and a perfect end. Overall a great place that I would highly recommend.
Our server Carlo was very good, and the timing of the courses was perfect for a romantic night out. Certainly not the cheapest place in town, but in this case you definitely get what you pay for.
