    The staff were very attentive. The shrimp Caesar salad and the lamb chops were delicious! We really enjoyed it and will be back.

    The food is good. The service was slow. . Absolutely definitely order the Honey Cake for dessert. It is fabulous. I would go just for that. If you sit outside, be prepared for street noise from North Avenue.

    This used to be Tratorria and it served Italian. It was sold to new owners who, someone told me, were Ukrainians. They kept the cuisine Italian, and that wasn't successful. Glad that they decided to change the menu to European. Food was fantastic. Wonderful server. Just a bit slow. Ambience was amazing.

    Hi guys. Everything was good. Just terrible restrooms. I couldn’t wash my hands-disgusting sink. But everything else was awesome.

    The food was great, but the two problems that contributed most to my disappointment were 1) I made an OpenTable reservation for the dining room but when I arrived I was told the dining room was being used for a private event (so why was I allowed to reserve a table in it??), and 2) the host who was also our waiter spoke and understood very little English so it was like ordering in another country. Just, what??

    We had received a menu flyer about the restaurant and decided to try it. We were very pleased and will go again. Our pork and salmon entrees were delicious. Definitely try the Honey Cake for dessert. It is excellent!
