  • I have to say, the overall experience wasn't bad, but I've enjoyed better food for the same price elsewhere. Everything was presented beautifully: the decor was classy, servers were neat and knowledgeable and appropriately formal, the food was beautiful on the plates. The view was ok, but we were seated on the down-stream side of the restaurant so it might have been more impressive on the falls-side. I will add that I was very glad to have arrived before full dark, or we wouldn't have seen anything but our own reflections. The whole meal took about 2 1/2 hours, and I felt like the service was a little slow; but not excessively so for a formal meal. Piatto Novo offers a nice selection of martinis, so I ordered one called Angel Food Cake which was excellent. In retrospect, it would have made a terrific dessert drink. We shared the Portobello Mushroom appetizer, and enjoyed it despite the fact that it wasn't heated evenly. My companion ordered the Caesar salad and said it was pretty good. I ordered the Piatto mixed greens salad (which was a lot of greens, and a few slivered carrots) and selected the orange vinagrette, which was a mistake. The dressing was so peppery that I couldn't eat it. In Piatto Novo's favor, the server noticed and took it off the bill. Next was the Cavatelli with Smoked Salmon, ordered by my companion. I didn't try it, but he described that the salmon was completely dried out (like jerky) as if it had been left under a heat lamp for far too long. For entrees, we ordered the Filet Mignon and the grilled Opah (one of the evening's specials). The steak was fantastic - rare when I'd ordered medium, but still melt-in-your-mouth delicious. it was served with fingerling potatoes and carrots that were perfectly seasoned. My companion equally enjoyed the Opah. We splurged and got dessert and coffee. I chose the Free-Form Apple Tart which was saved from mediocrity by the caramel sauce & my companion selected the Chocolate Fantasia which was also pretty good. The bill for the meal above and 2 glasses of wine was $150 (not including tip). If it was all very good, I would say well worth it. However, I wasn't as impressed as I had hoped to be with this experience.
