    Had dinner out to catch up with a friend. Nice vibe- there was Christmas music playing. Our first time dining here- beautiful restaurant. Decorated Christmas tree near the hostess stand. Energetic bar area. The server and other staff we interacted with were friendly and attentive- lots of refills on our waters without having to ask. We always appreciate that. My friend had a beautiful beet salad and grilled shrimp skewers that she said were excellent. The rainy weather had me ordering onion au gratin soup and then the bolognese. Both were very good and I’d order again. We enjoyed lemon sorbet and cannoli (4 per serving) for dessert. Will definitely be back. Looking forward to trying Stazione (sister restaurant).

    Had a wonderful date night. Bosse Enoteca was not what we expected. We were not seated by the windows with a pickleball view so we forgot we were in an establishment with any connection to pickleball. Enoteca has its own vibe. Best tender meatballs! The meatballs could rival any Italian Grandma’s recipe. The focaccia that came with the meatballs was grilled too hard but we also ordered bread service and that focaccia was perfect. Delicious and light Caesar Salad with sourdough crumbles instead of large croutons. The dressing was perfect and lemon-y, not at all fishy. My short rib gnocchi’s was tender, pillowy and rich with flavor. The short rib is shredded so not at all dry. Husband had the muscles AND the snapper, both were delicious. The sauce under the snapper was particularly tasty. The charred broccolini was fine, good side dish but it’s broccolini so it’s not going to blow your socks off. We also had the Brussels which did not look appealing but were very good! If you like arancini then you will love theirs. The strawberry gelato was wonderful. The service was outstanding! The waitstaff, Mahalia spent a lot of time helping us pick our dishes. The food runner was attentive and responsive. The manager and the chef also visited the table to inquire about our experience and ask for feedback back. Our bill was $178 (we did not drink alcohol). Worth every penny for a great date night. Next time we will request a table by the windows that look into the pickleball courts.
