De Santos Restaurant

Cute place. Perfect for date night or a group birthday. The ambiance is dark with exposed brick walls, candles, butterflies painted in some areas of the ceiling, a hanging taxidermy elk…. sounds eclectic, but it’s not. They offer simply prepared Italian at reasonable prices.

I started with grilled calamari with fennel and apples. Liked how the dressing was warm on the calamari side and chilled on the fennel side. Very fresh and flavorful. The pastas were great. We had the Trofiette with mixed mushrooms, spicy italian sausage, shallots and shaved parmigiano and Whole Wheat Papardelle with wild boar ragu. Both came out piping hot. The pasta was fresh, the ingredients were high quality. We enjoyed our meal with some nice reasonable Pinot Noir.
