My girlfriends and I had dinner at Matilda last night. Matilda is located on 11th Street between Avenue B and Avenue C. We had the pleasure of meeting both of the owners and learned about the history of this amazing Tuscan-Mexican fusion restaurant. As husband and wife, the owners decided to name the restaurant after their adorable daughter Matilda. The menu features common Mexican and Italian dishes with added twists from the other culture. You can dip either tortilla chips or foccaccia bread in the guacamole to taste a hint of basil. The gnocchi above was blanketed by a delicious cilantro infused pesto sauce. We each picked something different from the cocktail menu and we were not disappointed. I sipped on a Margarita Lime Vino, white wine with lime and salt. It was extremely refreshing and tasted lighter than a margarita but sweeter than white wine. Some of the other girls had Prosecitos, a take on a traditional Mojito. The drinks were made of Prosecco, lime juice and fresh fruits like mango, blackberries or strawberries. I definitely recommend Matilda for a girl's night out or a if you're looking for a fun date spot.
