A late dinner at Arcodoro last Friday night proved to be one of the high points of our Houston weekend. Our party of four arrived at 9:30 and the restaurant was packed! The food was outstanding. Our dueling appetizers were the Mozzarella con Funghi Trifolati (my personal favorite) and the carpaccio of beef filet mignon. For an entree, I chose the Dover sole. One of our companions ordered the venison chop, which was as good as I've ever tasted. An excellent wine list offered plenty of choices to complement our meal. Afterward, we didn't think we could possibly make room for dessert, but managed to share two outstanding choices with our coffee. The wait staff were knowledgeable and attentive, and the atmosphere lively. And, unlike some restaurants I've visited recently, you could still enjoy conversation with your companions. We look forward to a return visit. Michal Bagley Austin, Texas
