Pellegrino's Restaurant & Lounge

Small place with attentive wait staff and good food.  Now, that may not sound like much, but if you see the other places I have reviewed lately you will know that Pellegrino's must be pretty good to get three stars.  I had the steak and my girls had pasta dishes.  All were cooked perfectly and the wait staff ensured that everything was cooked to our liking.  So, not a bad place to have dinner.

I had a groupon here and i have to say the service was great. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. The food was good, but it wasnt remarkable. We had the warm spinach salad which i did enjoy. The salmon pesto was pretty good, and the mahi mahi was average as well. The german chocolate cake was nothing to write home about.
Overall, it was just ok.

pellegrino's is a consistent hit in my book. I have gone 2xs,

first time i got pork osso bucco, and OH MY GOD. its perfect. the dish is so well prepared, and garnished with thought and intent. i am a salt fanatic, and i didnt pick up the shaker ONCE. i also got the chicken phyllo- that was crunchy and delicious!! The bartender was very nice, makes a mean dessert martini, and has amazing hair.  

I bought a groupon for my second time there, and was treated like a normal patron. Which is always nice- usually they treat you differently. One bottle of wine, 2 entrees 45$ . great deal. I got pork again, amazing, and a pear salad- which was fully coated with dressing- love that- I hate to have to mix my own salad. dessert I got the banana cream pie. This pie, was literally the best dessert I've ever had, I hate banana but I LOVE how light this is, the crust is delicious.

I would absolutely return here, and I'm bringing my parents.  

Thanks For a great experience!
