Beautiful ambience with Great drinks and a nice menu. The waiter had appetizers, pastas,fish,steak specials all memorized and one sounded better than the others. Amazingly good meal cannot wait to go back. Nice wine menu as well. Desserts a must also. Note they do add on 3.5 for credit cards which adds up at the prices here so luckily I had plenty of cash.
