    We have been many times and yet have never had the wild boar Bolognese. It has been on the menu since the beginning so I don’t know how we keep missing it. Anyway, it was delicious as was the grilled calamari which used to be on the regular menu, but now frequently appears as a special. The Somalia helped us pair an excellent wine with our main course and the service was friendly and prompt as always. Birroteca is one of our favorites.

    We enjoyed our Valentine’s Day dinner at Rudy’s. I was surprised to see a 3 percent credit card charge on our bill. We were not expecting that since nobody told us about it.

    Everything was great. It was Valentines Day. The valet service was perfect. The hostess's welcomed us and took our coats, they were both cheery and polite. We were seated right away. Our server was Randall, first off, he has a great personality and man he knows his wine! Outstanding recommendation.....one of the best waiters we have ever worked with. The fresh focaccia was warm, and the sweet potato butter worked well with it. We split the beet salad, which was outstanding. The Swordfish was perfectly cooked, and the presentation was charming. The goat cheese ravioli was over the top good, nice and creamy but not over seasoned. My compliments to the Chef. We ordered the chocolate souffle as dessert (which you have order when you order dinner, it takes to make it from scratch), it will not disappoint...its paired with a raspberry sorbet. Great combination. Ask for Randall when you make your reservations. He's a really cool guy. The atmosphere was nice a welcoming, light jazz music playing in the background. The place was clean, neat and squared away. I thank everyone there for a wonderful evening.

    I had the crabcake and my wife had the parmesan trout and both were fantastic! Her trout was very favorable with the spices and parmesan coating. The served me a real Maryland flavored crabcake. The coleslaw was the best I ever had because it wasn't too sweet, and you could taste the vinegar which was the perfect tart flavor that was needed. Many coleslaw recipes taste cheap and too sweet but theirs was balanced. The fries rival McDonald's fries and before you laugh think about how perfect McDee's makes their french fries. The special Valentine Strawberry and Chocolate Mousse cake was a perfect ending to our meal. It had a little scoop of vanilla ice cream, strawberry sauce and white chocolate heart stuck into the cake. We will bring back our family in our second visit. Plus, our server was the best!
