    We had a reservation at 8:00 pm with a party of 9 on the night before Thanksgiving and were seated promptly—by that hour the restaurant was not crowded. Our server was very attentive and handled our large mixed-age group well. Once we’d ordered, our food came out promptly. On the whole, we were quite happy with the quality of the food, though one in our party found the chicken to be without much flavor (though they said the pasta and sauce were excellent). The Tuscan Ravioli was particularly good. Not an outstanding meal, but good food at reasonable prices with excellent service and a pleasant atmosphere for our large group.
