"I have been eyeing the restaurant for two years so I was thrilled to finally try it out! From start to finish the complete restaurant experience lived up to my hope. First, I chose the restaurant for the vegetable sauces that accompany dishes from pasta, risotto to seafood. Ordering was easy, we just got three entrees for the two of us: We started with the pappardelle with zucchini puree and walnuts, with a dollop of ricotta. The pappardelle had nice ribbed edges and the sauce was creamy and flavorful with leaves of fresh basil.Next: I ordered the Mixed Seafood Grill, which was chock full of different kinds of seafood, including monkfish ! , scallops, shrimp, calamari. It was just wonderful with nice size pieces of seafood. My husband got the special of branzini pasta first time ever seeing branzini served this way , which had a light pomodoro sauce.Wine was nicely poured, a chardonnay Rode and a chianti.Service was outstanding everything was at a nice pace, not ever being rushed, but never having to wait, either .Lovely atmosphere: beautiful large artwork on the walls, white table cloths, and best of all, tables well spaced apart.Everything was first rate here at Da Raffaele. We can't wait to come back!"
