    We discovered this amazing restaurant on Google Maps and immediately made a reservation. Let me tell you, it was totally worth the visit! The restaurant boasts a stunning view of the main streets, surrounded by skyscrapers that create a spectacular backdrop. The service was impeccable, with William as our server excelling at his job and even adding a touch of humor to our evening. My filet mignon was cooked to perfection and paired beautifully with charred asparagus. Both my husband and daughter raved about their delicious spaghetti with meatballs, made with the freshest ingredients. Although we planned on indulging in dessert, we were all so full that we decided to save it for our next visit. Yes, we loved it that much! If you ever find yourself in the area, I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try. You won't be disappointed!
