"GO TO ALBA for the food, for the drink, for the people We LOVE Alba and have never had anything but stellar service and immaculate, delicious food and drink.

We are never dissatisfied or disappointed with Alba. The service is excellent, great selection of wine, beer and spirits. The menu is seasonal, local, innovative and beautifully prepared. Our go-to when entertaining guests or celebrating special occasions.

I went there last night with my wife for a date night during restaurant week. What can I say? I had the best food I've ever eaten! I had the Salmon Coho, Braised Short Rib and Dulce de Leche Panna Cotta. I was deliberately taking small bites and eat slowly because I didn't want the amazing dishes I ate to end!
