    Everyone in our group of 4 enjoyed their meals. My husband is enamored with the lasagna; I loved the salmon. Sal, our waiter, even remembered to put the aioli on the side. Our friends both had pasta dishes that they loved. This was our 3rd visit in 3 months.

    Very nice dinner: ambiance is upbeat and is refined and friendly . . Actually elegant, there Are 2 or 3 distinct dining areas, food is excellent with large portions, dessert was fabulous, and prices seem to be very attractive as if from ~ 8 to 10 years ago. The Fiocchi dinner was the best I have had. Chicken Parm was delicious and large. The service was extremely engaging and attentive to our needs. Bravo ‘ !!!

    Pasta dish was very good. Steak tasted fair but was rather tough even though it was cooked medium rare. Service was great as usual.

    The service was slow. The white bread is just ok at the table. The caprese salad needed balsamic vinegar.

    It was my girlfriend Ami's birthday! Morgan was amazing!! 🥳🥳🥳 We had the best time. The food was so so so so so soo good!! I just wish they would bring back the table clothes. You can tell the tables are not meant to be seen and it would really help the volume in there to have something to absorb sound. They did away with them after COVID I think but it just feels like they cheaped out.
