Whitney: On a whim I had the pleasure to dine at Pegasus last Thursday. I don't know what I was expecting but what I got felt a lot like home. I don't remember there being any music just the light buzz of casual conversation throughout the restaurant. The mood was very relaxed, in fact, I haven't been to a place where I've felt that relaxed in a long time. I ordered the Grecian Vegetarian Penne (13.95) and my date ordered the nights special; Soft Shell Crab 25.50. Both entrees came with a side salad. Spinach, tomato and feta.
The salads were simple and understated but refreshing and satisfying.
The Soft Shell Crab entree was perfectly paired with southern style green beans and displayed nicely on two seperate dishes. The entree consisted of 3 healthy Soft Shell Crabs sauteed with potatoes and the dish was consumed ardently.
I had a steaming pile of Grecian Vegetarian Penne before me and though I tried to consume all of it in one sitting it was still just as savory for lunch the next day. Such a colorful pasta I felt a little guilty consuming the mirage of beauty before me. Outfitted with green zuchinni, yellow squash , feta, spinach, black olives, beans, tomatoes and sprinkled with parsley, this dish was right on point.
Overall: I enjoyed Pegasus and enjoyed the lack of stimulation. Sometimes its nice to go and eat and not feel totally exhausted because of all the pomp.
