    We had a great meal at Quartino. Ryan gave us tastes of about 5-6 different wines before we chose a Montepulciano. We had a salad, a side of asparagus, two of the fresh pastas and a risotto. The food was tasty and satisfying. Even our picky 10-year-old cleaned her plate! It was a bit loud though, possibly due to the World Cup game and a bachelorette party.

    Another perfect dinner at RL. With 2 dear put-of-town fiends in tow, RL really shined! Peyton was a wonderfully welcome presence at the host stand; Ricardo was on top of everything orchestrated a perfectly coursed out dinner; and Ramon is always a great presence making sure that we have all we need effortlessly and without any fuss. The food was completely on point and wowed our guests. While we are lucky to be there regularly, it is always nice to be reminded how special the food is when we bring wonderful friends from New York or San Francisco. The steaks were perfect, the veal milanese was the best, and the sides were always just the right thing. And, well, the desserts were a particular joy. Looking forward to more visits over the summer. Thank you, RL!
