My wife and I really enjoyed our experience at Di Pescara. The crab cake appetizer was a bit of a disappointment, though. It tasted ok, but I was hoping it would have larger lumps or chunks of crab, since it’s called “Jumbo Lump Crab Cake”. It didn’t. My wife got the Horseradish-crusted Whitefish, and I got the Mediterranean Branzino. Both were really good, but we each liked our own dishes slightly better. Our server, Marco, was excellent. You could tell he has a lot of experience. The restaurant was pretty full (Sat night), but the noise level was not too loud at all.

Great meal. Started by dipping the bread in olive oil with Parmesan cheese. Worked our way onto a delish cheese pizza. Thank you by the way! Chopped salad and Brick chicken are always delish. Management and our waitress were wonderful. Thank you again. We really enjoy the atmosphere you’ve created.
