4 /5 Jason Hinrichs: Our food was overall very good, in very adequate quantities and was consistent. The food lacked a quality that put it over the edge for what I would expect out of a $100+ experience per person. However, it was very tasty and the service was great.
The Caesar salad was underwhelming. The parmigiano was the highlight, but the dressing lacked the acid necessary to balance out the creaminess, and was under salted. 3.7/5.
I had the bolognese, which was a combination of brisket, veal, and pork, but the tagliatelle pasta. It was also under salted, but it was substantial and had a savory heartiness that I would expect out of a bolognese. I needed to add parmigiano, red pepper, and salt to get more depth out of the dish. 3.9/5.
My fiancee got the four cheese spinach pasta with pesto, and it was the highlight entree. The pine nuts and basil were fresh, and it had a depth of flavor that all of the other dishes did not. It was the only dish not undersalted. 4.3/5.
We shared the brussel sprouts, which were great. Typical high end brussel sprouts that have a great balsamic reduction, they balanced sweetness with savory very well. 4.1/5.
We shared a dessert, which they sorta got wrong because we ordered extra gelato on the side. We did not mind at all, and they ended up bringing out extra gelato for us because of it. The olive oil cake was good, and the caramel was incredible. It could have been a bit richer in the cake itself, and the salted caramel gelato was not nearly as good as the pistachio gelato, which was the right amount of subtle nuttiness. Olive oil cake 3.8/5. Salted caramel gelato 3.5/5. Pistachio gelato 4.1/5.
Service from Chloe was great. She worked hard to upsell us at every turn (thats her job) but it didnt feel like she was suggesting anything we didnt want. She was very attentive. Her service was a 4.8/5.
This place is worth coming for two different reasons. 1. Come once to try out on a fancy date. 2. Come after dinner for a double date of drinks and apps. Probably wont be in my regular rotation, but Ill likely be back.
