Grabbed a quick lunch during a conference at a hotel down the street. I had alerted the restaurant in advance that I had limited time and they did an amazing job of making sure I could promptly order, receive my meal, and settle my bill. So grateful for that! I had the butternut squash ravioli and it was yummy- just wish it had more sage (partly a personal preference- I happen to love sage).

Amazing food! So fresh and full of flavor! Lamb was tender and falling off the bone. Rice was fragrant and smoky. Caramelized onions gave it a great sweet flavor while their spicy sauce gave it just the right amount of heat! Wow! I will be coming back!
