| - I've been meaning to try Lisa G's and finally got the opportunity last night. It was pretty quite for a Thursday night. I arrived and went right to the table where a friend was waiting. The restaurant was only half full.
We visited and the waiter kept checking on us. I was drinking wine, my friend a pot of tea. We finally ordered a few things, the meatballs, the vegetarian salad and the empanadas.
The first to arrive were the meatballs. They're pretty big. Tasty and I love that they were served with a generous slick of, I think, pecorino (sp?) cheese. The cheese was super tasty. The meatballs were good, not the best I've ever had, but good.
Next was the veg salad. Organic mixed greens with roasted portobello, peppers, eggplant and a little feta cheese. The salad was dressed very nicely and was really good. I loved this salad and would eat it as a meal, but it was nice to share.
Last were the empandas. Very flavorful. Heck, pretty much put anything in puff pastry and I'm sold. The flavors were nice, but the pastry was a little limp and they weren't as warm as I'd like them.
The atmosphere is super cute! Good for a date or a night out with the girls.
Oh, and before we left, Lisa cam out to tell us about "Women Wine Night". It's the last Wednesday of each month from 6:30 to 8:30. Not sure what as is involved, but sounds like a nice little girls' night out.
I'll definitely be back.
