    I took me and my wife out to Contessa for dinner since it was our anniversary and she fell in love with the restaurant. We ordered the whipped ricotta as a appetizer and it was a 10/10, for our main dish she ordered spicy lobster capellini and there’s a reason why it’s one of their most popular dish, as for me I ordered the macaroni with wild boar ragu and it was delicious. Our server was very attentive and helpful with recommendations from the menu. Overall our experience was a 10/10.
