Ferry Street Food and Drink

I hadn't seen my dad in forever so we squeezed in a visit on a Friday night of an extremely jam packed weekend.  My dad usually wants to go to one of three places- Annie's (a small Mexican/Italian place at the end of his street), Margarita's, or John Brewer's.  It was a little surprising when my dad suggested a different place, Ferry Street Food and Drink.  We had been there once last year and had a good experience so I was excited to check it out again.

Ferry Street reminds me of the Druid, only larger and with better service.  The interior features lots of wood paneling and mismatched old fashioned chairs.  The large windows are screened in so you can get a nice breeze when the weather cooperates.  The menu is small but with a nice variety.  I ordered the cucumber salad and deviled eggs and both were good but I wish I had ordered what my dad got.  He ordered the rigatoni with banana peppers and chicken.  The pasta was cooked just right and the banana peppers offered a nice tang to the sauce.

While the food was good, what got this place on my blog was the service.  My dad has clearly been in a bunch and everyone was so nice to him.  They checked in to see how he was doing and were just so pleasant to him.  My dad loved showing the place off to us, much like I love showing off our neighborhood spots to him.
