| - I had dinner at Tutti Santi on July 31, 2015, it was a memorable experience.
First off, this place only serves dinner and if you're interested in a reservation do it online because you'll be lucky to get a return call if you leave a message.
When you arrive, don't expect flattering service. I suspect Tutti Santi relies on it's regulars because the servers don't go out of their way to make you feel welcome. They're not exactly rude either, but I saw other tables who were almost ignored until they got up and asked for service.
Speaking of what I saw at other tables... (YOU GOTTA READ THIS) I was watching the server who was working at neighboring table with a birthday cake and noticed something hanging from his face. "Huh" I thought, "I wonder what this is..." So I watched closer. I saw it again and suspected something gross. On the third sighting I confirmed my worst suspicions, the server had a long watery snot hanging from his nose. Yes, no joke!
As the server walked away from the table he wiped the snot away from his face with his bare hand, then wiped his hand on his apron. GROSS! Seriously, I didn't know whether to laugh or vomit, so I laughed.
If you can tolerate the mediocre service, and the potential for snot in or near your food, then I encourage you to try the cioppino, it was great! Served piping hot it came with plenty of mussels, oysters, shrimp, fish, and I think there may have been some lobster in there too, all in a delicious slightly spicy broth. The tiramisu was good too, and our server (not the one with snot hanging from his nose) says it was made in house.
On the negative side, the salad was very plain and sloppily served. Plus, they serve romaine lettuce which I don't care for.
Thanks for the memories Tutti Santi!
