Items Ordered

Caesar Salad

Caesar Salad

This tasted like a typical Caesar salad. There was nothing special about it, except the cheese on it was a good cheese.

Phyllo Wrapped Goat Cheese

Phyllo Wrapped Goat Cheese

This was a really nice appetizer. The phyllo pastries were filled with a sweet goat cheese that complemented the sweet and sour orange slices and pomegranate vinaigrette.

Semolina Gnocchi

Semolina Gnocchi

I've never had gnocchi like this - they were more like deep fried potato patties. I normally don't like gorgonzola cheese, but it tasted very subtle in this dish. It was really good melted on top of the gnocchi and mixed with the walnut sauce.

Grilled Filet of Salmon

Grilled Filet of Salmon

The salmon was a very boring entree. The fish was incredibly plain tasting - there was nothing on it. The spinach was creamy and a bit salty. It added some flavor to this dish, but it was still very bland.
