My wife and I ate dinner at Lavinia's Thursday and really enjoyed it. The clam chowder was interesting and a little different with a heavier bacon flavor than most, but delicious. The Caesar salad was also a slightly different take on the traditional with tomatoes added and the romaine cut lengthwise. My wife loved the ragout and I had the filet with the pappardelle pasta in Alfredo sauce - also an unusual combination but good. My steak was a perfect medium rare.

I think it's great they have such wide price points across the menu and look forward to trying other things.

We all know its tough to make a restaurant successful, particularly in a highly seasonal location. I wish the owners and staff the best of luck and success!
