   Went on Valentines Day and there was a prefixed menu which was $85 per person. The menu options weren't great and didn't feel like $85 per person quality. Service slow. The place was LOUD due to live music taking place in the bar area. Unsure if this location wants to be a sports bar or a fine dining establishment. Willing to give them another shot on a non holiday/non live music night.

   Why does this place have good ratings? For a $265 dinner for 2 the quality was not good at all! It took 25-30 mins for to served a warm drink which tasted like rubbing alcohol. My sea bass was overcooked/stringy and the server never came back after the food was dropped off. Dessert was worse than Carvel. Manager was also quite rude. Very undesirable experience.

   Nice place but they had a fixed menu for Valentine’s Day and it wasn’t a good selection Would go back on a regular day to see how the regular menu is ….

   Do not go here on a holiday they only give one menu that is price locked, we went there for Valentine’s Day and the food was absolutely terrible for 85$ a person, and the desert was just a scoop of ice cream would not recommend at all

   Since it's the last day of restaurant week we decided to dine her for dinner. Upon entry, we were greeted by who I think is the owner. We made reservations for 4:30, but they allowed us to sit down at 4 (party of 2). We were waited on by Logan. I am uncertain if he's new, but the service was lackluster. We ordered meatballs (not appetizing at all), and fried calamari was light and crispy but nothing to write home about. It took more than half an hour for the main entrees to arrive. I think they forgot to put our order in. The table to the left of us received their main entree before us, yet they ordered after we did. Anyway, I had the seafood bass, and my friend had the lobster ravioli. I enjoyed the seabass it came out hot. It was adorned by a light sauce and pistachio crumbs on top of it not too soft, not too hard, 3 asparagus strips. My friend said the ravioli was okay. It tasted like boxed ravioli with some sort of sauce and a few asparagus cuts. We decided to order dessert and get the check at the same time since we were there long enough. I had the chocolate gelato, and my friend had the NY style cheesecake. Meh.....one and done for me.

   As we were sharing a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, we thoroughly enjoyed our appetizers (fried calamari and brussel sprouts), entrees (sea bass and branzino with shrimp) and desserts (chocolate and vanilla gelatos). Everything was delicious. We went during Restaurant Week but would return anytime!
