I regret that I can only rate last night’s dinner as good and only deliver that grade due to the excellent appetizers and dessert. One of my favorite restaurants and a no-brainer for birthdays, anniversaries and other celebratory dinners our entire party was quite disappointed in the main course selections served. The Eggplant Parmigiana was unappealing and just not good, The Linguini with clams tasteless, and my standard favorite Lasagna was not as I remembered. I will return at some point but was really surprised that our girls night out was less than desired on the culinary side of the evening.
