Some items were exceptional; ceviche, bluefin tuna appetizer, roasted yams, ribs, sea bass, pasta with seafood. The misses; focaccia bread for $11!, cioppino was too salty, pork chop sauce was so sweet the flavor of the high quality pork was disguised. Drinks were all very good. Will definitely be back for the scallops and fried sea bream.
