    Contessa is a delight that you cannot refuse! I enjoyed an incredible Wednesday lunch on a beautiful early afternoon. The atmosphere of the restaurant is beyond exceptional — I even had the pleasure of meeting the florist for the establishment, of whom was as beautiful as her designs. I indulged in a quaint solo lunch, to celebrate the release of my first poetry book. Francisco took great care of me, from start to finish. The Seasonal Bellini was a refreshing treat, as I enjoyed the Daily Imported Burrata as my Antipasti. The presentation & taste was perfection. Next on the table was the Ricotta Gnudi di Pecora, which may I recommend. . . This was undoubtedly the BEST dish that I have ever experienced. There is significant passion and purpose poured into this dish — applause to the entire culinary team for this piece. Seriously. If you are fond of great company, thoughtful wine, and outstanding cuisine — Contessa is a must. Special appreciation for the team who made this visit extraordinary.
