[Dinner style - swipe for more food + chic decor]
Finally had the chance to dine last night.
To start, Pete had a Red Blend & I had the a refreshing, delicious, tequila based cocktail.
We began our meal w/the Burratina which we ate so fast the only photo is of the empty plate (in pic of my drink). It was a perfect take on classic combos. The arugula, Burrata, balsamic, prosciutto, tomato confit (wished there were more of those amazing little flavor bombs 😍), & crispy bread - we call them paksimadia not sure what they are in Italian. But anyway, all the pieces of the dish came together so perfectly that the flavors SANG. We did not leave a crumb!
We shared the Bistecca for2 w/a side of Brussels sprouts. The sprouts had a nice balance of crispy/charred bits (plus the pancetta in there gave them extra flavor).
The steak was Med Rare+a hint of truffle. So tender that the butter knife was up to the job. Pete & I enjoyed every last morsel.
Needless to say, one can’t celebrate birth w/o sweets, so we ordered the cheesecake. It was very well balanced. I like super creamy/cheesy cheesecake and my husband prefers more dense cake-like cheesecakes. This was the most perfect version of right down the middle creamy but firm cheesy but cake-like as it gets. We BOTH loved it! Which is actually rarer than our medium rare steak 🤣 Truly a delightful end to the meal.
The server and food runner added their personal flair and consideration to the meal. We appreciate their efforts to ensure we enjoyed every moment.
Through the entire experience, I could not help but keep looking around to take in the decor. From the gorgeous velvet banquettes, to the incredible tiling behind the bar, to the AMAZING moss wall, the vibe enhanced the delicious meal.
After dinner, the stop at the restroom was also an experience. The tiles, the wallpaper, the snake mirror … it was all so chic. Coincidentally, my nails matched the room. Great minds.
Well done to crew
