The salmon is farm raised, so no , thank you. The tempura vegetables were oily, but well grilled and seasoned and served with a steaming pink peppercorn dipping sauce. The rice and mushroom hot pot with tofu was an interesting vegetarian choice.

We were able to get to Di Pescara in time for the Supper Club - which is such a fantastic deal. The food was delicious, as usual....love the almond crusted whitefish. And the chopped salad. And the peppermint ice cream with fudge sauce! We had a 5 year old birthday girl, who wasn't sure she wanted to be there. Our wait person was so patient and kind. She really helped make the evening!

This is my 5th visit in 3 months and I am never disappointed. Love the tapas style menu. Grazing is a favorite dining experience and the choices are many and delicious. The staff is terrific. Miriam, I believe that name is correct, was outstanding. Will return soon.
