    My fiancé and I dined here last night to celebrate our anniversary, and it surpassed all of our expectations! The ambiance was swanky and intimate. It was not too noisy at all. Our waitress, Morgan, was great! We never had empty dishes sitting at our table or empty glasses. Now for the food, it was the highlight of the evening. We started off with tuna tartare and the truffle mushroom risotto - both blew us away. My fiancé got the beef Wellington, and I got the fish and chips - both were incredible! Then, despite feeling stuffed, we decided to get the sticky toffee pudding (amazing), and the restaurant gave us another dessert for our anniversary! We will definitely be back.

    Such a charming place! Dinner started with bread topped with caramelized onions. I can’t describe how good that was! The homemade fettuccine noodles were the best I’ve ever had! The bacon in it I think was actually pork belly which added so much flavor. The ribeye was cooked perfectly.

    This was a delightful dining experience. The waitstaff were very friendly and attentive. Our server even gave us a history of the area, which was impressive. The food and presentation made this our new go-to for Italian food. We truly enjoyed ourselves.
