    Food came out fairly quickly and was tasty. I would say the lobster ravioli with shrimp could have brought more than 2 shrimps but all in all good ambience, service was quick and attentive, it was a great date night.

    Food and service was good. Scored a last minute Cslenyibes reservation. Worst part was parking. This whole area was painful.

    Ordered Veal Marsala. No medallions but 2 small chucks of beef. No marsala sauce. Tablespoon of beef au juc was over the chunks.. Presentation was disgusting. A pile of 2 small chunks of beef of some kind. Doubt it was veal, 4 small pieces of potato over the chunks with 4 asparagus spears -super adente and no mushrooms with the beef au juc. All this for $38.00 plus a 3-4% "servie fee for using a credit card. To be honest had better food at our local diner AND no service fee. This entree was served 4 minutes after they brought out a Ceasar Salad with diluted dressing. All in all the food (salad and entree) was somewhat tasteless. The entire order which included the alleged veal marsal and a pasta entree came out cold. Not what one would expect at a popular restaurant. I was embarrassed taking my date there on Valentines Day. Note: House wine was very good.

    The worst chicken Parmesan I have ever had, truly. A small, thin, overcooked piece of chicken that was stringy and hard to chew. There was literally one piece of it that I left because I couldn’t get my knife through it. The sauce was watery and had almost no taste. And the penne pasta with it was a bad choice since no sauce sticks to it. To be honest, the other diners in our group said their meals were good. But I only tasted my dinner.

    I love the ambiance and wonderful attitude of all the staff. The beautiful live music, which is at a perfect sound level, adds so much to the mood and setting. But the menu was pedestrian. Please bring back your great Branzino!

    Attentative service, excellent food however, the portions are inflation adjusted as everywhere. The atmosphere is romantic with live music. We want to return.
