    We had the Tagliatelle Bolognese, which was delicious with a lovely Moscato, and the hazelnut and pistachio gelatos for dessert. Also loved the green garlic sauce that came with the complimentary bread basket. The servers were all very personable and helpful, and there was a relaxing ambience. We will be back!

    Best place ever! I had a date night, and my server seit made me and my date have the best experience ever, the food, drinks and dessert were all 10/10, but I strongly recommend the seafood pasta with fresh tomato sauce you won't regret it and for dessert the bomboloni it was the cherry on the cake!

    Didn’t know where to enter exactly. We waited 30 mins after our reservation to get sat. Menu was overpriced in my opinion, food didn’t have much flavor profile. Waiter was cool but forgot couple drinks and our apps. It was my aunts birthday and they also brought a whole different dish then what she ordered. And when we said our apps is missing, they didn’t offer to comp the app or didn’t offer any thing for us waiting 30 mins after our reservation or even bringing the wrong meal for my aunt . There was no music, we could hear everyone’s conversation and they can hear ours. It is a very beautiful restaurant. Very sexy ambiance but I would say food was wack and service was alright and value was overpriced .. adding 4 shrimp to anything is $16. I will not be going again but MAYBE for a drink. I liked how the inside looked
