New fall cocktails and entrees were on the menu this week. The pear cosmo was delicious. Homemade new england clam chowder was loaded with clams. Fall cavatelli entree was a delicious combination of ingredients. The chicken parmigiana was a very large serving. We can't wait for our next visit with Karen and Angie.

Had to send my food back for the first time in my life - tuna steak that I ordered rare came overcooked (well done and dry) and extremely salty. The second one came medium and just as salty. Do not recommend.

Another great night. We tried the mozzarella stick appetizer. It was large enough to share three ways. The cajun chicken quesadilla, another special, was a very large portion and very tasty. Angie, Karen, and Amy made our dinner very enjoyable.

We started with cocktails. Karen makes the best Manhattans and Lemon Drop Martinis. For our appetizer we had the shrimp and crab cocktail. Both were high quality seafood. We followed with he chicken milanese and chicken fingers with fries. Both were amazing, the chef was spot on. As was the service with Angie as our waitress. Always a pleasure to dine at the Ovalon.
