I'm giving this place a 3.45...I don't know, maybe I was expecting more from the more than 50 glowing reviews.
I am more of a drink and mingle kind of girl, but there is no mingling to be had at Postino. On the other hand, I can also be an intimate conversation kind of girl, but I didn't feel that was to be had at Postino either. The room was loud and bright - hence the lack of intimacy. Maybe it's because I went around happy hour? Maybe better at night?
As stated in previous reviews, the bruschetta is truly awesome! I love the fact that they let you choose up to 4 toppings - very original idea. The service was fabulous, we had more than 4 people attend to our table throughout the evening and our waitress was very helpful with wine & food recommendations.
I will be back - that's for sure. And definitely for the $5 wines when I get the chance from 11-4. But maybe I'll have lower expectations which will likely result in a better experience.
