Unfortunately I decided to revisit this mainline staple with my wife for our anniversay. On a Friday night the restaurant was not even half full so the service was impeccable with a ratio of wait staff to diners in favor of the diners. However, while the service was excellent, the food was anything but. The dover sole, prepared table side was weak in flavor and portion...considering the $45 price. Our appetizers lacked creativity and were both overcooked. Dinner came to $400 for the two of us. Unfortunately the meal did not warrant the price. The cheese plate was excellent and was a nice way to end the meal but even the wine was overpriced by $60 or so when comparing the exact same bottle to surrounding restaurants. It is ashame to waste such great staff on a meal not worth serving. Not sure how Savona will survive with the innovative menus sprouting up all over the mainline. For someone who dines out 6-8 times per month, this restaurant will no longer be on our list of places to eat. We will not go back.
