Short
version:
If
you
are
a
fan
of
fine
dining,
this
is
the
best
spot
(at
least
the
I've
found)
on
the
island.
Period.
If
you
like
wine,
this
place
is
for
you.
Long
version:
One
thing
that
this
island
isn't
known
for
is
fine
dining.
That's
fine,
but
as
someone
who
enjoys
good
wine,
atmosphere,
and
entrees
worth
the
$30
price
tag,
I've
been
feeling
incomplete.
Enter
Formaggio
Grill.
This
place
is
truly
spectacular.
I
honestly
got
a
kick
out
of
reading
all
of
these
reviews
mentioning
how
expensive
it
was.
Do
they
also
review
sushi
places
and
complain
about
the
raw
fish?
Formaggio
isn't
expensive
for
no
reason.
My
wife
and
I
shared
the
calamari
starter
and
it
was
some
of
the
best
calamari
we've
ever
had.
They
had
jalapenos,
fried
squash,
fried
mushrooms,
and
delicious
sauce
unlike
I've
ever
seen
for
calamari.
It
was
delicious,
well
cooked,
and
worth
the
price
(which
honestly
is
a
good
descriptor
for
my
whole
night
at
Formaggio).
I've
included
a
picture
of
the
Garlic
Ahi
which
was
my
entree
(medium
rare).
I
can't
even
describe
how
good
it
was.
Just
do
yourself
a
favor,
go
there
and
order
for
yourself.
You
may
also
notice
the
8
wine
glasses
in
the
shot.
Formaggio
Grill
has
wine
by
the
bottle,
6
oz
glass,
or
2
oz
glass.
Our
server
chose
two
flights
of
4
glasses
(2
oz),
one
flight
for
me
and
one
for
my
wife.
The
wines
were
numbered
and
we
were
given
a
paper
to
look
at
after
with
the
names
of
the
wines.
I
had
more
fun
trying
mine
and
my
wife's
blind
wine
flights
than
I
have
had
at
any
other
dining
experience
on
the
island.
If
you
are
even
considering
getting
into
wine,
expanding
your
tastes
or
trying
something
new,
this
is
your
place.
I
found
some
new
wine
I
didn't
know
I
liked
last
night.
The
2
oz
glasses
are
fairly
reasonable,
just
over
1/3
the
price
of
the
6
oz
glass.
Let's
talk
about
the
atmosphere.
I'm
used
to
places
like
this
being
much
more
dressed
up
on
the
mainland.
Here,
patrons
were
in
a
wider
variety
of
clothing.
I
saw
a
woman
with
a
wrap
over
her
bathing
suit
and
a
guy
with
a
backwards
hat.
I
saw
women
in
dresses
and
guys
in
button
ups.
It
seems
more
like
anything
goes
dress
wise
but
that
probably
has
more
to
do
with
the
island
than
the
restaurant.
Overall,
this
was
an
amazing
experience.
My
food
and
wine
were
phenomenal
and
I
will
be
coming
back.
Definitely
for
a
special
occasion
or
just
when
I
feel
like
having
a
nice
date.
