    Fantastic quality food with many options. Service was also wonderful. Only thing to make it better is to include a sweet wine as one of the house glass of wine choices. Maybe White Zin or Moscato or a Riesling.

    Dear Linda Thank you so much for dining with us and for enjoy the quality food and service. Thank you for your suggestion on the wines, we do carry by the glass Sweet Riesling from California and a Sweet Moscato from Italy, i'm sorry if you missed it this time, definitely the waiter should have helped you with your wine selection. Thank you looking forward to your next visit. Happy Holidays

    The food was incredibly good! Our waiter was so sweet- a college student. This restaurant is now on our list of favorites when visiting in Naples.

    Our server did a good job. I would just recommend that they review the daily drink & food specials with all staff before opening. Music was a nice touch. The food was delicious. I had salmon and it was cooked perfectly.

    We sat outside and enjoyed live music while we savored charcuterie and wine. The squash blossoms were a little disappointed as they were deep fried rather than sautéed. Overall, very good!!! Our server Jordan was terrific.
