Excellent except for side of spinach which was weirdly sandy. We ate some and had to stop. Also, polenta was lumpy under chicken and grainy. Otherwise a good meal and experience. Thank you!

Food was quite wonderful, surprisingly so for a venue close to theater. A little noisier than I would have liked but to be proximate to our show (7 PM curtain) made it a worthwhile trade-off. Would absolutely return, my new "go to" restaurant for theater evenings.
