Always a wonderful meal and experience at Corsica. Great, welcoming and friendly service! Love the rustic vibes, decor and comforting atmosphere. Service is always perfectly timed with the tapas and all the tapas compliment each other with the burst of flavors. All of the servers are always so knowledgeable about the menu, specials and cocktails. I also love how they always do personal recommendations that end up being my favorite drinks or menu items. Dined out as walk ins with with out-of-town guests on a Monday night after 8p reservation. The restaurant was accommodating with a 5 minute wait. Rino parking is always challenging, but on a Monday night, we scored parking just a block and a half away and a short walk. We really just enjoyed each other's company, and the delicious food all evening. I didn't take many photos of each order, but some of the favorites tonight were the multiple orders of the Barbajuan
(crispy ravioli with ricotta, greens, parmigiano), Brussels Sprout Remoulade with smoked trout, tuscan kale, sesame, Corsican Frites
(hand cut russets, fried herbs, aioli, calabrian ketchup), Salmon Rillettes
(vinegar chips, tarragon, dill),
Gemelli 'Cacio e Pepe (parmigiano, pecorino romano, hazelnuts), Farro 'Risotto' (mushroom, sunchoke, black truffle, sunflower-rosemary crisp), Grilled Chicken Thigh with the delicious vadouvan aioli, and the Beef Bavette With green peppercorn sauce, parsley. That green peppercorn sauce is SO GOOD! Jar it up and eat it with everything please! Also whether you want an NA or a good cocktail or a fantastic wine with your meal, you definitely need to order something at Corsica. I love their drinks! Tonight I ventured out of my norm and got the Picasso (reyka vodka, lillet rose, grapefruit, honeydew melon, lemon, peychauds, rosemary), but would definitely order rounds of the Wolfpack (four roses bourbon, braulio amaro, mattei cap corse rouge, salted honey, lemon, kinome) next time. Thank you Corsica for a wonderful meal! Our friends from Chicago really enjoyed the experience and now want to come back to explore the menu but also try Barcelona too.
