My granddaughter is visiting and I wanted her to see some of Fort Worth so we walked around near Sundance Square. She wanted Italian and found il Modo in the Kimpton Harper hotel. It was a short walk down a lovely street.
Lunch on this Saturday wasn't busy so we were seated right away. I tried the Aperol Spritz $11 and it was really nice. We shared some calamari $18 (not real tasty but not overly bland) and Meatballs $16 (larger than I expected and a little too much sauce, which is better than dry).
I loved the seating. I prefer to sit in a booth but my granddaughter grabbed it. My seat was so comfortable that I didn't mind it a bit! We could see a bit of the street out the windows, really nice.
She ordered a margherita pizza $15 but it seemed each time she tried to pick up a slice, all the toppings came off, so it was a little clumsy to eat but she enjoyed the flavors.
We each enjoyed dessert - I had the cannoli $9. It was good and the fruit served with it was fresh. She ordered the creme brulee $10 and I had a taste - yum! The custard was lovely and the topping crusted perfectly.
I appreciate a little more attention when a restaurant isn't busy and our server checked on us often. I believe even the manager passed by and asked how everything was. So I have to give this visit 5 stars - they checked all my boxes for good food, good service and a nice atmosphere. I live in Dallas, I need to check if we have an il Modo here!
