I write many Yelp reviews, and less often encounter a five-star restaurant. But Amaro's Table is just that. We arrived during the peak dinner hour and were met with friendly staff. There was a necessary wait, but not more than 10 minutes. (Staff said 20).
The decor of the restaurant is impressive. When we ordered the beet salad we said that we were going to share it. I expected a single salad for us both to pick at. But no, the salad was nicely split onto two separate plates. Reviewers had said that the fried chicken dinner was great. It was a chicken breast, so hubby was expecting something tough, but he ordered it anyway and was not disappointed. It was fried in a unique way and was both tender and flavorful. While waiting for our food to arrive, we looked up, on the internet, the brand of the sharp cutting knife hubby was given for the chicken- the retail price is over $100! The mashed potatoes and the coleslaw were delicious and prepared in a simple way that complemented the chicken. Hubby asked about gravy and was offered a side of Marsala sauce, which was delicious but unnecessary.
I had the BBQ Pork Ribs. I didn't want the Mac & Cheese that came with it, and asked if I could have fries. Mashed Potatoes, OK. And Cole Slaw. I loved the mashed potatoes with the ribs, actually, that's a first in such a long time, that I appreciate having mashed potatoes that night! As for the Ribs, we went out on a road trip, and I brought what was left over, and ate it in the car, along with other stuff we brought with us. It was fun and still finger-likin' good!
Our server, Tanya, was as friendly and helpful as could be throughout the meal. For dessert, we took a tiramisu home- had it the next day with our lunch. Yummy. But before we left our seats we were presented with a complementary plate of Ricotta 'donuts' in the form of baseballs that were superb. (For first time visit).
All in all, a wonderful experience.
