    It was a gorgeous evening to eat outside. As we finished our mains, we ordered another bottle of wine, and a hostess came out to tell us that we had to be moved for tables to be joined together for a larger party. WTF?? Fortunately, our waiter, Ricardo, was awesome. He told us to finish enjoying our meal and not to move as the restaurant had room elsewhere for the party. We were then able to order dessert and finish having an enjoyable meal and evening. The appetizers were mixed (tuna and breads good, calamari more rubbery than expected) but the mains (salads, steak, lasagna) were good. Throughout the meal, Ricardo was attentive and took care of everything we needed.
