    We had the most amazing experience at Anabella’s! The restaurant is so cute and has a great atmosphere. It was amazing to see and be served by familiar faces from Buyers and Cellars. We had a bottle of the croatian orange wine that was wonderful and paired well with the mezze board, arrancini and their special of the day: lamb lollipops. We had the ravioli, cornish hen and beef tenderloin for mains and they were amazing. All the plating was gorgeous. We had some nice wines by the glass to go with the mains and then had tiramisu for dessert with a shot of delicious amaro. I can’t wait to come back and try their patio!
