AMBIANCE
Romantic & sexy.
We did request to be seated inside as a walk in, and they said they couldn't take us till 7:30 (it was 5:50pm) we assumed it was because of other reservations but it was almost completely empty. My best guess is they wanted to serve people outside until 7:30? Not sure, it wasn't made clear to us and we speak Spanish well enough to be told why. Anyway, no biggie. We usually really like indoor seating bc of mosquitoes. I am allergic to mosquitos and was so nervous about being seated outside, but there weren't any here in this cooler weather so I was really happy.
FOOD
Delicious. We ordered the toast which had fig, arugula, and ricotta on it... it was good but had we known they were bringing out complimentary bread, we wouldn't have ordered it. The Milhojas de Camote was DELICIOUS. Honestly I will go as far as saying it's one of the best salads I've had in my life. And I love me some salads. For pasta we ordered Garganelli and the Tagliatelle - my pansa is not a fan of mushroom, so I stayed away from the Garganelli. The tagliatelle was delightful. So yummy! I was bummed out that my lactose intolerance decided to later kick in and leave me extra bloated the rest of the night. :( honestly tho. Worth it
DESSERTS
Had we known we would get a complimentary tiramisu bite, we wouldn't have gotten out desserts lol.
DRINKS
Manhattan and White Negroni - so yummy! I am more of a bourbon drinker, but I would drink both of these.
SERVICE
Almost perfect - like we felt like we were at a much fancier restaurant. The staff was so kind and caring. They came out professionally with each dish and explained each dish to us. We were so grateful for this! My only "disappointment" if I would even call it that was our water wasn't refilled and we had to ask them to do it. It could be a US thing we are accustomed to? Not sure but definitely recommend being upfront about your needs.
I do wish there was some more upfront-ness w the toast prior to your meal and dessert after your meal.
We loved our experience and will absolutely be returning. Thats all. read more
