| - Quite honestly, Piatto Novo didn't meet expectations.
The great: The setting and the design of the restaurant is spectacular. Its beautiful. A modern structure jetting out into the natural setting of the falls. Heck, I've driven by here 20 times and didn't know there were falls, let alone a place like this. So my visual needs have been satisfied.
The good: My date and I had good service. So there ya go. My emotional needs were satisfied.
The just okay: So the next step is ordering. It's a basic menu, with what you would expect at a place like this. I can't judge the steaks, because I only go the steak route at steak houses, but the pork and chicken entrees were just okay. The beef tenderloin skewer was overcooked beef on a stick, stay clear. The Piatto salad with red wine vinaigrette was a joke. It was lettuce, on a plate, with a touch of dressing. The Chicken Arrosto was definitely tasty, but the potatoes were under the chicken and soggy. They also had a pork special, which was HUGE, but sometimes you sacrifice flavor with size, and that was the case here.
There are better options, comparatively. I'm sure you can find something you enjoy, but this place won't be my first choice. Maybe drinks over the falls then move on.
