This place is wonderful. It was like an oasis from the hot weather. We ate lunch, a group of 4... a couple of Filipino girls who were here for culinary training at Squaw valley, myself(Sous Chef, and trained in the art). We wanted to eat something delicious and yet within the budget... this place not only accomplished those traits, but it also was welcoming and friendly and fun. We decided to share our food, we orders Parmesan fries as an appetizer, it came with black truffle aïoli(which I admit was a great touch on the spelling) which was absolutely delicious. You can also get different styles of small plates like mussels, roasted asparagus, and marinated olives straight from California, and some delicious looking salads. But I needed something more than just a salad or a sandwich, especially after a day of taking in the sites! So the girls ordered a chicken sandwich that was supposed to be cut in half, but they were so nice enough to cut it into quarters! Ok I work in the industry and that is a rockstar move right there. That means that the waiter was relaying and communicating with the chefs about the table. They also went for the spaghetti and meatballs! Which were huge; at least baseball sized. And the sauce was sweet and yet hearty. And the fiancé and I went for the cioppino, and I must say it was delightful. The bread and croutons were delicious when dipped into the flavorful sauce! And while I went to sneak in to pay the check and to wash my hands, the woman of my dreams ordered a delicious chocolate cake that had a light dollop of whipped cream with crunchy toffee bits. Drizzled with chocolate sauce and a raspberry cooli. So decadent. And don’t forget to tip in cash!!!! Taxation is theft. Overall it was an amazing experience. Oh and my cocktail was the red sangria, and a true one that was light and yet flavorful. Thanks for reading!
