However, hope that they can sort out some of the minor inconsistencies in the kitchen. The broccoli rabe was also a bit on the mushy side as well. On the other hand, the chicken Francese was a bit overcooked. They weren't skimping out of the seafood either. The seafood risotto on the regular menu was also stellar, probably one of the better ones that I've had in a very long time. The grilled baby octopus and langoustine appetizer was excellent both in taste and presentation. I think some of the specials may be a bit too hefty on the price, but decided to go with one of the appetizer specials, which turned out to be fantastic. They had a lot of tasty sounding specials.
The wine was also taken care of promptly. The meal started off with some complimentary bruschetta and warm bread. Probably would have to park in Piccolo's lot. Really nice Italian BYOB with great service. Would recommend for a casual night out when you want to feel kinda fancy, but not fancy enough to dress up or go out of your way for food. It is a better restaurant than the standard eatery but by no means is it "classy" and I don't know why I would pay 35 bucks when there are comparable Italian eateries offering the same food, (less service?) for 10 dollars less a few blocks away. The place tries to be on the fancier side and it's just not there yet. The place is casual, walking in here with a tee shirt and shorts isn't uncommon. (5$ – would pay 2$)Īll in all this meal cost about 35$ and honestly, had it been 25$ I would've gave it a 5/5 rating. Even with a packet of sugar it was still harsh (and grainy). (10$ – would pay 7$)Įspresso here is slightly different as it's much thicker and stronger than what you'd find in a standard cafe. Very enjoyable and different than cake or ice cream, kind of a meeting point for both. Sort of a heavier and milkier whipped cream. (18$ – would pay 13$)ĭessert was homemade cream and fruits. The pasta was cooked a little past al dente which I'm not used to but still enjoyed. Probably the meatiest ravioli I've had – it's like tiny hamburgers in a pasta bun. The ravioli didn't take long to come out and wasn't inedibly hot, just needed to be cut into quarters. I opted for meat ravioli.Īfter telling the waiter my order another came with an appetizer (it was only one bread slice with oiled salad on top) but none the less a delicious and nice gesture. I'm always a fiend for good lasagna, however the waiter told me it wasn't an option today.
Very clean and good temperature air with shades to block out the setting sun. Room was a nice intimate space but had plenty of walking room between tables.
(Wish I had gone for Cannoli or Cheesecake the first time I had gone).Really wanted to give this place 5/5 but just can't do so with the price range of the food they serve.įrom start to finish I had no complaints. Lastly, dessert is a cherry on top for those who are in need of something sweet after their entree. Parties, bring a couple of bottles to go around and have a great night.
TUTTO A MODO MIO FREE
Again fresh taste clams and mussels! A tip for first-timers thinking of heading to this restaurant, B.Y.O.B! Couples, feel free to bring a bottle of wine for you and your partner to start. My partner and I shared the Vongole E Cozze Alla Larry our first time. Although, fresh bread is served to you at the beginning, don't be afraid to try a hot appetizer to prep you before your entree. The portion ratio of seafood to pasta was very balanced and you don't feel cheated by the chef. The mussels, calamari, shrimp, and clams in this dish were FRESH. Seafood and pasta seekers, try the Risotto Al Frutti Di Mare. Otherwise, the staff's service was on point, even for a busy night ) Seafood is a MUST try here. Let me start by saying, Tutto A Modo Mio, has a great environment for those who are looking for a restaurant with a crowd (not a bad thing, but if you're wary about current conditions dining out - this is a fair warning).
