I have written before about how wonderful we found this restaurant to be, and I am happy to say that our experiences there since then have only confirmed our first impression. Last night we decided to go out for a light dinner, and made an early reservation at Americana. We were given a perfect table right by the water, so we were able to watch the antics of the lake residents (geese, ducks, coots, turtles) as evening fell and the lovely outdoor "fairy lights" came on. (I started feeding the animals some of our bread, and seeing this, the Maitre D., came out with a bowl of bird feed for me to use - thoughtful!!) We were not up for a heavy dinner, so we each just ordered a couple of appetizer dishes - Celeriac Bisque with King Crab and Pancetta Wrapped Romaine Salad with Caesar dressing for me, and Oysters Rockefeller and Grilled Hamachi for my husband. We just ordered wine by the glass, and the California rose that I had was exceptional. A light, casual dinner, but with first class service (thanks to all staff, including server Vinnie and his assistant Mario). We are fortunate that this very special restaurant is 2 minutes from our home, but no matter where you live, it is worth the trip.
