Insalata's is fantastic! We had servers with personality and charm. We had BIG, flavorful food. The menu and decor are clean and straightforward. We found the staff entirely approachable and knowledgeable. They made great recommendations and parings. Okay, more on the food: Trio of Dips--this is hummus perfected. Nice and garlicky. Heirloom Tomato BLT Salad--here's an architectural take on a classic favorite. I mean, who doesn't love bacon (for the most part). Grilled Salmon Filet--oh my, the delicious bean, tomato, corn, pea assortment that it rests on was SO incredible. And the salmon was pretty great too. Charmoula Pan Roasted Alaskan Halibut Filet--crispy exterior and flaky interior. Served with the most complimentary eggplant ratatouille and balanced with bulgar pilaf. And if that isn't sybaritic enough for you, we had dessert. Peach-blackberry crisp with vanilla bean ice cream. Served hot. We left nothing in the ramekin. And the Pig in Mud came home with us: let's call it breakfast.
