    Excellent service and the food was delicious. Portions were a little smaller than other places but very good. They also asked if we were celebrating anything and when we told them it was our anniversary we received a complimentary dessert and Lemoncello shots.

    Food was good but I think it was expensive for what we had. Theservice could have been better and were always looking for our server.

    My wife & I had a wonderful dinner last Saturday. Lisa was our server & she was great. Fairly new to this restaurant but explained all the food options etc. some of which I didn’t know. Both of us had the vodka pasta with sausage. Wow. Also had an excellent Caesar salad. Too full for desert. But one thing most servers do not do these days is pour the wine after the initial pour as we always order a bottle but Lisa did that. I know it’s a small thing but, for us, it was such a nice touch. Anyway food was great as always but Lisa really made our visit special.
