A rock solid neighborhood restaurant with top quality ingredients.Especially memorable was the chocolate almond tart, which was the lightest, most pleasant chocolate dessert. It's not sweet (for a dessert), which makes it delicate and super refreshing. It's for someone who wants a light, interesting, yet deeply satisfying finish to a meal.
The absolute best!Love this cozy neighborhood joint.Everything I got was top quality, including the service. Thank you Sam! You rocked.Definitely make a reservation and make sure you have enough time to find parking. Once you’re sat don’t be afraid to wrack up a tab!You’ll want to try it all.If nothing else, order a Pearl martini, the crudo, the spaghetti, and the pana cotta!
Wonderful dinner for our group of four. Our appetizers, entrees, and dessert were delicious (and reasonably priced). We very much enjoyed our meal. Roasted asparagus and roasted cauliflower were wonderful starters. The green garlic rigatoni was perfect! and my stablemates loved the lamb belly roulade and the handkerchief pasta dish.
We had the famous handkerchief pasta and the shrimp spaghetti. Both pastas had great texture--noodles were fresh and properly cooked. The sauces left more to be desired though. Both were super rich and mostly tasted like butter. There was no spice to the handkerchief pasta sauce and it would have benefitted from some. The spaghetti also had just a buttery, herbacious sauce, but thankfully had some spice. Bread/butter, olives, and deserts were tasty. Friendly and fast service.Service: 5/5Presentation: 5/5Taste: 3/5Overall: 4/5
I’d give this 4.5 ⭐️ s if I could. Great neighborhood atmosphere with homemade pasta dishes and fresh ingredients ?? The Cesar ? was a bit overdressed but the croutons were a home run ⚾️ The cauli was a pleasant surprise and the ? pasta was worth the average service (to be fair it was crowded and we were sitting outside). I’ll be back to try the steak and dessert ?
Food: 3/5Service: 4/5Ambiance: 4/5Overall: The food was standard fare in my opinion.Food:Seared Tuna Crudo - 3/5 - Pretty standard fare in terms of taste. The fish tasted fresh.Stead Tartare - 3/5 - Similar to the tuna the taste was standard fare.Duck Leg - 3.5 - This was a little different with the crispiness which was a nicer touch. This did dry out the duck a little bit though.Spiced Pear Upside Down Cake - 3/5 - I really couldn't taste the pear that much. The good thing is that the cake was moist.Chocolate Creme Caramel - 3/5 - A very rich and dense chocolate creme for sure. A nice take on the standard creme caramel and by far more decadent.Service: 4/5 - Very friendly and attentive staff.Ambiance: 4/5 - A cute ambiance inside along with good outdoor seating.
Solid food with nice service.Crudo was tasty, beef tartare was on point and fresh. The pork belly was tasty as well. The only underwhelming thing for me was the pasta. The noodles were a bit over cooked and chewy while the flavor wasn’t much to write home about. All in all, I would definitely come back and try some more items!
Amazing experience at Pearl 6101! Our whole party enjoyed it!!Highlights were the roasted cauliflower app and crab gemelli pasta main.Americano coffee was also good! Grapefruit mocktail was amazing. ☕️ But really, we loved everything.Beautiful ambiance, nicely paced meal, chef came by to check in. Everything was fabulous.Get an early reservation to enjoy the meal. We got a 5:30 reservation and it was perfect.We want to come back soon, as they have a seasonal rotating menu! ?
Had an 815 dinner reservation with my wife. They have beautiful outdoor seating and heaters, but we prefer to sit inside to avoid getting too cold. The handkerchief pasta (customized to be gluten free) continues to be our favorite dish and the cocktails never disappoint. Most of the menu can be done gluten free which is nice. I'd recommend trying to get an earlier reservation if possible as we felt quite rushed / worse service than when we'd done an earlier time prior.
