    The experience was great except the music was so loud we couldn’t talk to each other. Save a few decibels and you would be amazing

    A few of the food plates were not well proportioned around wise for the cost. Food was delicious, but could use more, especially the gnocchi.

    Great service, food was good. There is a live music, so it is a bit loud. I would go again for lunch when there is no music.
