Went to Oleana for Valentine's Day and it was culinary poetry.
Ambience: we were seated near a window overlooking a patio covered in snow. I think the nicest thing I can say is that I forgot I was in a restaurant.
Quality: This is easily the best restaurant in Boston. The service was fantastic, and the food was refined. I felt a joy that I haven't felt in a long time between courses because I was excited for what was up next.
Variety: We ordered the vegetarian tasting menu (five meze and a dessert, $40), and Sortun did an unbelievable job selecting each course. Each bite was balanced and spiced to perfection. The falafel melted in my mouth and was unlike anything I've ever tasted. And the dessert? Nougat Glacé with Warm Pear & Pistachio Tarte Tatin. It was ecstasy in a bite.
Bottom line: I'm nostalgic for the meal and it has barely been 24 hours.
