Celebrating an early birthday for my step daughter as she loves pasta. We made reservations as one of favourite Italian restaurants and it was the kid's first time. Our table was ready and we were seated in the patio. We were seated in the corner...and it was cold as the cold air was seeping in as there was a gap to our left. It's super cold as it's suppose snow tonight. We had kept our coats on the whole time. We put our order in and timing of food coming out was on point knowing the food is made to order. The server did tell us the entrees are almost ready but I wasn't concerned but appreciated the heads up. I can tell it was busy as the restaurant and patio was full. The server kept all guests calm consider it was a busy Saturday night. We started with BURRATA CAPRESE. Did you know the burrata mozzarella is flown directly from Puglia? We order this appetizer every time, so good. The burrata is so fresh, smooth and light, almost like cottage cheese consistency. It's so good with slices tomatoes, basil and greens. Entrees: -LOBSTER & CRAB RAVIOLI - wow! This was a decedent dish. I had a bite of this and was an exciting bite! I would order their next time. - PAPPARDELLE "ROSCHE ROSCHE" - my dish was delicious! The short rib and sausage ragu was flavourful and paired perfectly with the al dente pappardelle. It was a hearty dish good for a cold evening. -SPAGHETTI ALLA CARBONARA - birthday girl also enjoyed this dish. The Guanciale was really nice add to the dish. -GNOCCHI AI QUATTRO FORMAGGI - stepson ate all of this himself and I asked him how it was? His response "it's pretty good" and continued to eat. That's always a good sign. Dessert: Birthday tiramisu with a candle of course! The service is always good and our server tonight was fantastic. It took me back to vacation pre-COVID to Venice. We will return! Thank you of keeping open and following protocols during the pandemic.
