I yelp'd this restaurant before we actually went to see what to expect. GREAT reviews. The minute we sat down The big hunk of Parmesan was sitting on the table and the captain started cutting pieces off for us. Then the flood of food started pouring onto our tables. It was awesome. The fried zucchini, bruschetta + mussel. Good nibbles before the real deal came.
The captain came over introduced himself and proceeded to give us the specials. We all joked that we needed subtitles because he had a thick Italian accent and we had no clue what majority of the specials were. We caught seabass, ravioli and veal hahaha. It was a good time.
I ordered the beef carpaccio for my appy: Thinly sliced tuscan style beef served with arugula, olive oil and lemon.
After passing it around to everyone at the table for a taste, I had one bite left....it was a delicious last bite.
For my entree I had the mushroom ravioli. OMG DELICIOUS! I was so full by the time my entree came, but I forced fed myself because it was so good. I also tried a bite of everyone else's to add to that. *ugh* but it was all worth it. On the table we had Ossobuco "the manly dish" lol (my friend Princess ordered this and the waiter looked at her wide-eyed and said wow, that's a manly dish) lol. Lobster Ravioli, Sea bass, Lasagna, and Veal. Every last dish was delicious.
Even with all this food we still found room for dessert. Gelato, Tiramisu, flourless cake, and cheesecake. HOLY CANOLI they were all good! The Cheesecake was the best cheesecake I've ever had. The Flourless cake was awesome too.
Overall Food was great, service was great. O I forgot the grappa was extremely strong, but apparently it's suppose to be like that. Loved the restaurant, it IS quite pricy, but for me it's well worth the treat once in a while.
