We had been to Glovedi twice and really liked the food on both visits. This dinner however missed the mark on several levels. The one and only highlight of this meal was the Prosciutto San Danielle which made by Best Bites list. Love this appetizer and would return again and again just for it. The combination of Bread, Prosciutto, Parmesan Cheese and Giardiniera is perfection. The Ono Crudo was totally ruined by being covered in Shiso Leaves which overpowered the fish. It was all you could taste and ruined the flavor of the fresh fish. The Cavatelle Santina included a nicely cooked Pasta but the Braised Octopus was like mush. Tasted a bit like Clams but nothing like Octopus. The Sweet and Sour Pork was a mess of a presentation with more Shiso Leaves covering the entire piece of Pork. Why would a Chef cover the main dish with these leaves? Again the Shiso overpowered everything. The Pork was neither Sweet nor Sour. It was like a local style BBQ Pork Chop and tasted like a bad Ham. We only ate about one bit each and didn't take any home. Not the best meal prior to heading to see Journey in concert.
