Had a great evening with exceptional service by Alex and very good food. We had the curry mussels, tater tots, baked oysters and Harbor salad. All were quite unique and very tasty. We especially enjoyed the Harbor salad which we split among the table. We also had the punch bowl which was a nice drink option but required some extra effort to finish despite splitting between 4 of us. Probably better for a party of 6. Overall it was a great evening at The Pearl.

Excellent dining experience and definitely plan to enjoy Trattoria Roma again soon. Our table enjoyed the bruschetta, lasagna, carbonara, gluten-free penne, with chicken and bolognese sauce. All excellent! The spinach salad with apples and goat cheese was also very tasty. Our server, Sarah was attentive and provided great customer service.
