We were so excited to see our favorite family Italian spot from Mulberry Street making an appearance on Race Lane this Summer! When we saw a reservation available we booked right away as it was a last minute idea. Memorial Day Monday was packed at primetime despite the mass exodus we saw on the LIE on our way out east - the hostess did not miss a beat and we were seated right away. Warm welcomes from everyone who touched our table. Our server, Lola, had impeccable knowledge of the menu - so lucky to have her out here this season. We also recognized one of the bartenders from the city who was working in the garden that night, and with Edwin managing it's no surprise that service was smooth from start to finish. For drinks he had the frose, then an espresso martini sub tequila; I had a mezcal negroni and then a glass of the "No Name" a delicious light to medium bodied red. We started with a pizza per server's recommendation, shared the eggplant parmesan as well as an app; then got the bass - the individual portion was two perfectly prepared filets served over artichoke hearts, castlevetrano olives, and cherry tomatoes. Seasonal vegetables that night were delicious sauteed snap peas with fresh mint; and I had my favorite arugula salad in lemon dressing with shaved ricotta that is my go to on Mulberry street as well. The s'more sundae was a super generous portion with all the accoutrements, apparently you can get a bigger size too for families - we had more than enough. After dessert I did have a cynar neat - then Limoncello appeared and a candle on a dessert plate as I'd mentioned celebrating my birthday that weekend. The whole staff sang us happy birthday and even though it was closing time; the hospitality never once skipped a beat. We look forward to dining here again!
