We had an excellent family Christmas meal for the 6 of us. Burrata and crab and spinach dip appetizers were awesome and everyone enjoyed their pasta dinners. Staff was so attentive and we couldn’t have had a better time. Always a great experience.

The music from the bar was too loud & created a scenario of dining guests trying to talk loud & above the music. Some buffer is needed as there are two different experiences … party / dining Maybe close off the entry to the bar to contain that as a separate experience. The food, drinks all good. The service was outstanding. Full house yet our waitress was attentive and didn’t miss any of our wants as she kept an eye on our wine, water and checked back periodically This venue offers, as I said. Two different experiences and would be more appreciated if they did have a quieter area for fine dining as everything else is spot on. Return ? Absolutely !
