| - So, we were looking for something new to try and this place popped up on my OpenTable app. It was also my birthday, so I thought it'd be nice to enjoy some Italian food on the day this Italian was born.
We were promptly greeted and taken to our table next to all the wine:) They brought out some bread, which had herbs and spices on top and came with some kind of red pepper dip. I wasn't too keen on the dip, but my man was.
For beverages, he had a Kiltlifter and I had a glass of Sean Miner cab (it's my last trimester and I hear it's ok...plus I nursed that sucker throughout the ENTIRE meal!). For apps, we each had a salad: he had a Caesar which came with the addition of toasted cashews (Yum!) and I had a Greek salad. We were both quite pleased with both the flavors and portion.
For entrees, I ordered the Tre Funghi pasta (oyster, white and baby portobellos) in a super delicious cream sauce with house-made pasta-I forget what kind, but it was similar to penne, only a little thicker and cut in half length-wise. He ordered the gnocci with brown butter and broccoli rabe sprinkled with parmesan. Our server came back to let us know there was an issue with the broccoli rabe and asked what veg her preferred instead, but he just went with chef's recommendation, so it came paired with spinach. Still good.
All in all, I'd say our experience was a good one. Good food, good drinks and good service by Danny (at least I think that's his name, oops!)
