Yummy cocktails to start. Fabulous dinner: chicory, foie gras walnut salad + octopus + lumache for me. Dining companions had the lasagna, bay scallops, and cobia. All were delicious. Katie recommended a delightful champagne to enhance the first courses. Pammy’s continues to be a gem.

I went solo and it was amazing. If you go with someone else or go in a group, use it as an opportunity to try every dish they have to offer because everything on the menu is packed with flavor and just well-executed. Drink whatever wine Jesse tells you to drink. I know I'm biased because I've been eating Chef Dooley's food for 10+ years going back to his time running the kitchen at Craigie on Main. He has never lost a step, and there's a reason all of his ventures have been so successful. You won't be disappointed and you'll keep coming back.
