Beautiful set up for Valentine’s Day, server was great and knowledgeable. Food couldn’t have been better ! My girlfriend ordered The Branzino and a side of fettuccine Alfredo and the combination was amazing! I ordered the Rigatoni Alla Vodka and added the crab cake and i devoured it ! So delicious. Our little one ordered the Fettuccine Bolognese and it was a HUGE dish. Could have fed two people but tasted great !! We ordered the famous strawberry shortcake and needless to say, it didn’t stand a chance, absolutely phenomenal.

We have been here several times and have always enjoyed our meal. We did the prefix menu for Valentine’s Day for 130 each. We got there at 5 and were seated in a corner in the back room which was dark and poorly lit. Our waiter gave us our menus and said they were self explanatory. He cam back and took our orders after I had to wave him over. The room was only 1/3 seated. He clearly did not want to be there. The food was very mediocre. I ordered the veal,chop which was really a veal patty. We’re poorly cooked the waiter did not as what temperature. Nothing. I had to wave to him to get more water. We won’t be back.

We enjoy this restaurants, we are vegan and they are very vegan accommodating even though you’d never know that from the menu! But the waiters know their food and they make it easy to dine there!

Bus boy was super sweet Waiter was nice but we definitely felt rushed. Dinner came out the minute our apps were finished. Not good! Should be at least 20 mins in between. Food & bar drinks were good but overpriced for sure. My advice is to be the 730-8pm reservation so not so rushed. We were 6pm. Not sure I'd go back.

Our server Nicky was amazing, and fun. Delicious assortment of breads and dressed tomatoes delivered to start. Best meatball appetizer ever. My shrimp saltimbocca was excellent as was pasta bolognese. Found a hidden gem red wine on the menu that didn’t break the bank. Strawberry shortcake for dessert was quite good. Loved it here!

Seated immediately upon arrival. Table next to us was a bit overexuberant - glad when they departed! Waiter was prompt and pleasant. Ordered Capritinis - by no means short on the alcohol. Had the prociutto wrapped shrimp with spinach and hubby had lobster ravioli. Both outstanding!

Food and service were excellent. Loved the salad, swordfish, bread, and pasta. You could tell everything was cooked perfectly. I didn't love the seating, since I was half blinded by the streetlight next to our table. They should pull the outdoor blinds down about a foot.

Outstanding! This restaurant does all the little extras that elevate it to the highest level. Had the biggest stone crab claw of my life (16oz). Absolutely save room for the ricotta cheesecake!
