    Our waiter, Hyrum, was terrific and pointed to some great choices for our dining companions who had not previously dined at Caffe Molise. Food was great and the service warmly efficient without interrupting our lively conversation. It was our first time ever to be seated upstairs, which has much to recommend it. Much quieter than the main dining room, even though it seems to be mainly reserved for large parties. We’ll request in the future.

    The first 30 minutes of my experience had me a little worried. I got a call from the restraint a few hours before our reservation asking to move it back 30 minutes so my party if 3 could have a "larger" table. We arrived and still had to wait an additional 30 minutes and by the time we sat down we were starving. The table we were sat at was one of the smallest in the room. However, as soon as the food started coming out we quickly forgot about the delay in seating. The potato bites and popovers to start were welcomed and delicious. We ordered the steak tartare, ravioli, and scallop ceviche to start. The scallop dish was the star of the show but all were great. For entrees we had the filet, short rib, and kings crown lamb. All were amazing with the lamb being our favorite. We ordered the eclair for dessert and the orange sauce and ice cream were incredible. It wasn't similar to a traditional eclair but was so great. The food and our waiter really turned the night around for us, not to mention the cosmos, old fashioned and really great spicy mocktails. Will be back soon!
