I would have given this five stars if I like beef short ribs. Since I'm not THAT carnivorous, I will give it four stars. Sorry to those of you who like that much beef. Went there last night with a friend. We ordered the mozzarella pesto as our appetizer, and his main course was the short rib and mine was the chicken penne pasta. The appetizer had quite an interesting presentation. The server did quite a show of stretching the cheese and, then, presenting it in a designed manner. It came with tomatoes, which seasoning was exquisite, and pesto and some type of dry toast/cracker. Seriously, we had been at the adjoining Salt Lounge for happy hour, and even though I thought I was starving, by the time we finished the appetizer, I was FULL! The mozzarella, put atop the cracker, with the pesto and the prosciutto and the seasoned tomatoes, I would kill for that recipe. I make a darn good pesto -- if I say so myself -- but theirs was fabulous. And the flavoring of the tomatoes, I wish I had the ingredients. I would definitely make them myself. Getting to the dinner, I LOVED my pasta. The ingredients in it were the right mix. I've had plenty of pasta with chicken, but this dish had the right mix of veggies, olives, seasoning, chicken, dunno. Perfect with a capital P. His short ribs, he loved. Me, uhmmm, I'm not that much of a beef eater; I thought it was good, but considering the fact he loved it, I'm thinking it was good. Would I go back? You betcha!
