I recently visited Tuscany by Sage & Salt for dinner after making reservations with a friend, and overall it was a really nice evening.
The reservation process was smooth, and our table was ready right on time when we arrived, which I always appreciate. While waiting for my friend, I started with the middleneck clams served in a white wine-style sauce. They were absolutely delicious; tender, flavorful, and served with bread that was perfect for soaking up the sauce.
The table also came with crusty bread and a chunky olive and tomato spread that had great flavor. It paired really well with the bread and was a nice start to the meal.
For my entrée, I ordered the 21-day wet aged USDA Prime Ribeye, which normally comes with mixed vegetables and rosemary garlic roasted potatoes. Instead of the potatoes, I opted for the Saltimbocca Creamed Spinach. The steak was cooked perfectly to the medium temperature I requested; the cook was spot on. However, the ribeye itself surprisingly lacked seasoning and flavor. It honestly tasted like it went straight to the grill without much additional seasoning.
I ordered a Gorgonzola butter with sun-dried tomatoes (I can’t remember the exact menu name), and spreading that on top of the steak definitely helped add some flavor.
The lobster tails I added were good, and the Saltimbocca Creamed Spinach was really delicious… rich, creamy, cheesy, and very flavorful.
The atmosphere was great. I had previously visited this location when it was 600°, and the space is still beautiful. It’s in a great location and has a really nice dinner ambiance.
Overall, the service was excellent, the setting was beautiful, and most of the food was very good. If I return, I would probably try a different entrée, but it was definitely an enjoyable evening.
