    Met a dear friend of mine for dinner. She hadn’t dined here in quite some time so we it would be nice to revisit. The service was impressive, food was delicious and plentiful. The cocktails were mixed well with just the right amount of alcohol. Wonderful evening we had!

    Great experience overall. There was a bit of a wait at the front while the hostess checked some coats. A party who came after us tried to cut the line but the gentleman who came took care of us right away since we had reservations & someone else took the walk in group. Service & food was excellent. The igloo experience was the best decision since it was intimate with a great view & we played our own music. Staff was attentive even if we weren’t inside. Loved the decor & every minute there!

    Christmas time is truly the best time to go bc its beautifully decorated! Portions are huge so recommended splitting entrees or prepare to have take home box. Service is outstanding and all pasta homemade except penne and rigatoni. Only con - F&B is overpriced but understandable due to location and popularity. Highly recommend though!

    Had requested a quiet table/booth. When we arrived early on Friday night. 13 Dec, restaurant was very busy and packed. Hostess did not really have any quiet tables/booths and told us up-front. Only tables available were in the back near 2 large, probably loud, holiday celebrating groups. Bar, however, was very open, and we could get stools far away from the large groups. We thought this was perfectly acceptable, and it turned out DELIGHTFUL. We sat side by side, could easily hear one another, and watch all the activity. But what really made the evening SPECIAL and memorable, was our server, the bartender, George. He had great recommendations, all the food was truly outstanding, and we could not have had a nicer evening out for a very senior couple,
