Baraonda

We had an early dinner here before a play at the Fox on Friday. A lot of people must of had the same idea because the place was pretty packed at 6P.

We got a wonderful table outside. The street noice was not too loud and the breeze was perfect. Immediately, warm Italian bread, olive oil and parmesean cheese was placed on the table.placed It could have been real easy to eat that bread for dinner :)

Instead we ordered two of their specialty pizzas for appetizers. We were not too adventurous-and went with the caprese and margherita. In case you are not familar with the two, niether have red tomato sauce-instead the focus is on the cheese. Everyone thouroughly enjoyed both pizzas. Their flavors were immense, but they were not too greasy/heavy.

Three of us ordered Chilean Sea Bass, which was a special for the evening. It was covered in artichokes and tomatoes and was accompanied by roasted potatoes. I honestly thought the sides tasted better than the fish, I think there was a tad too much olive oil that the fish swam in. Mitchell got the veal marsala, his go to Italian dish. He felt that the meat was a little rough/dry. As if we did not order enough food, we also got a side of spaghetti. The sauce was scrumptions-I literally scraped the plate clean–even when there were no noodles left.

Next time we go back, we will look into the mussels and salads for appetizers and be a little more adventurous with the pizza. Hey, maybe even get a pasta on the side. Either way-we will be back.
