    Food was good but service was terrible. Unattentive. Asked for bread twice and never got it. 35 minutes to get drinks after we sat down.

    The food was good. The gnocchi were under cooked but the sauce was delicious. The veal Osso Bucco special was very tasty. The service was not very good. We had empty drinks after bringing our drinks from the bar and were never asked if we needed another drink. I would consider going again but if the service doesn’t improve, it would be my last. Separately, it is cold in the restaurant especially near the from window where we were seated.

    Food and atmosphere were very good. Service just mediocre. Staff was nice but not as attentive as I would have expected given quality of food and overall atmosphere of restaurant.

    Excellent food and service and we dined early, so it was quiet. Not sure about during peak times in terms of noise level.
