Last Saturday night we went to Danny Brown's on Metropolitan Avenue with Joe and Debbie. They had given me a gift certificate for my 50th birthday and so we invited them to share dinner with us.
They stopped at our apartment for drinks and snacks first, then we drove over. Parking was great (surprisingly). Our reservation was ready. I love banquette tables. Joe ordered a bottle of Tempranillo that was very good. We shared a goat cheese app and a grilled calamari app. Joe ordered a half portion of short ribs angiolotti too.
Dinner was chicken under a brick (Michael's favorite), salmon, beef something (I can't remember) and I had white beans and escarole (two side dishes on the menu). They don't have their scallops anymore (bummer, because they were the best).
Service is good and the ambiance is warm. I wish it were a bit more quiet. There were a lot of twenty-somethings, guess they're noisier than fifty-somethings.
We had a great night. Our first time out with them even though we've been friends for a few years now.
There is a rumour that Danny Brown's is moving (not closing), but the waitress wouldn't confirm or deny, so we'll just have to wait and see.
