We enjoyed a great meal, chicken wrap’s appetizer, my husband had Gumbo and I had the glazed Salmon. It was all delicious. The drinks were also great. We each had two drinks and spend $160 including tip. Overall we were very happy with the quality of the food and service.

We were in a few weeks ago and had to come back for the Seared Tuna. We tried the Pasta A La Posto for the first time this visit too. Amazing. Our server Liz was amazing and made a point to visit with us as well as take care of our order. The food and staff at Posto 31 creates an experience far beyond anywhere else we dine. Chef Jason is a mastermind. We’ll be back and soon.
