Wife & I love this place. House made pasta, bruschetta and nightly specials are always phenomenal. The chef is superbly talented and the staff are outstanding. Last night we had the lobster & shrimp risotto and halibut specials which were both delicious. Highly recommend this place!

Group of 6 celebrating birthdays and Christmas. The food was outstanding, and I recommend the veal. My buddy had the filet and said it was awesome! Everyone else had pasta and really enjoyed it. Service was great in recommending dishes and wine. We will definitely be back!

Food is consistently good here. Excellent veal marsala tonight. I was disappointed my otherwise good vegetables were garlicky.

Was there to celebrate a milestone birthday. The manager Mikal was made aware, but much to my suprise, he avoided our table (party of 2) until it was time to cash out. Even then, all he did was come swipe the folio off the table. We sat and watched him interact with every table, EXCEPT ours. Also, be aware that they include a 20% gratuity onto the bill and provide a lineto add more tip (deceptive in my opinion). So I was very surprised the following day to realize it was not the "suggested tip" when I'd tipped the bartender/server in cash. Food was great. But doubtful I'll ever return due to the glaringly obvious disdain for patrons who look like me.
