It was truly a great ambience. Our personal hostess Tonya took very good care of us as she was super friendly and explained the dishes if we were uncertain, I was impressed with after each meal they cleared up wiped the table clean and placed our next upcoming entree with new cutlery. Very neat and clean service. Overall we had a wonderful experience of great fresh Italian food.

Staff was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. Starting with focaccia and a dip. Could eat every sandwich I’ve had on this bread to elevate the sandwhich. We had tuna tar tar, Delicious, unique taste. Calamari with shoe string potatoes. Sauce for calamari was delicious. Followed by a very generous portion of rack of lamb. Best lamb ever, with vegetables and an italian barley. Any ingredient could stand alone and be nights meal. We also had branzino, again, best Ive ever had. It is our new favourite place. Lastly an orange dessert can eat all day and teramasu again delicious.
