  • Shakti's was a big disappointment. I had high hopes and the restaurant itself is beautiful - low lights and beautifully decorated. Very romantic.

    First, they didn't have our reservation. Then, the service was rushed. Our appetizer arrived at the same time as our bread, before we'd even had a chance to sip our wine. No soone rwas the appetizer whisked away than the entree arrived.

    We only wanted a glass of wine but we wanted something good, to go with what we thought would be good food. The waiter had to struggle to tell us which varietals he had, and could tell us nothing about where they were from, or which food's they would go with. We didn't have time for a second glass. The wines themselves were OK, but I'd have loved information about them. I'd also have loved to see some local wines on their (verbal) wines by the glass menu.

    The appetizer, the calamari, was pretty good and it was nice to see it not fried for once. My husband's pasta entree would have fed three people and was daunting. My risotto was dire. There are two risottos on the menu at Shakti's and I am fairly certain they make up a batch of very cheesy risotto early in the day, then simply heap the differentiating ingredients on top (scallops, arugula and Roma tomatoes in my case). These latter ingredients added nothing to the dish, bar the scallops, which were nice.

    Ironically, the scallops were what led to me being sick, starting the next day, with food poisoning.

    Our dessert was the orange creme brulee, which was delicious. But not worth the trip or the money we paid.
