    Mon 12:30pm reservation seated immediately. Our waiter Luis was most attentive. However, the slab of ribs was terrible. Looked like It was warmed, reheated and leftover from the day before. Completely dried out, hard and crusty!

    Great menu with excellent flavors! Can’t go wrong if you want a night out and something that’s different than the same old restaurants that are around. They gave a complementary soup to everybody at the table upon arrival that was delicious. Good selection of cocktails and nonalcoholic beer option. Would take anyone there.

    The service was excellent. The food was very good. We had the meatball appetizer and 2 pasta dishes. I had a glass of pino noir and my friend had the pomegranate drink. I can’t remember the name. Both were very good. The valet service was also excellent. My only complaint is when I booked the reservations there was only a 2:30 and a 2:45 seating. When we came in there were a lot of open tables. We left at 4 and only a quarter of the restaurant was full.
