   We dined here last night, and it was an absolute disaster from start to finish. The food was horrible—over salted, undercooked, and completely lacking any sort of flavor or freshness. For the absurdly high prices, we were expecting something at least passable, but this was beyond disappointing. The food came out in five minutes which means it was pre-cooked and was poorly prepared. It felt like no care or effort went into the dishes at all. On top of that, the service wasn’t great either—brought regular coke instead of Diet Coke and just lacked care. We will absolutely never be coming back here. Save your money and your taste buds—go literally anywhere else. Total waste of your money.

   A bit disappointed. Ordered lasagna, personal fave. It arrived barely hot enough. A[peared that it wasn't cooked to order. because the sauce on top was hotter than the lasagna underneath. So I guess it is precooked in large pans ahead of time, then cut and covered in more sauce. I could have waited till the server came back around to check and sent it back, but decided not to wait and just started eating. It was competent, not memorable.

    Brought my friend for her birthday and I really picked the right place. She is gluten free and said her gluten free pizza was the best she's ever had. I had a marvelous salad with arugula, barrata cheese, fresh figs and melon and it was outstanding. Then for dessert they brought us a beautiful panna cotta with chocolate and strawberry sauce that was heavenly. Our table attendant was just lovely. This made for a perfect lunch. Next time, I'm bringing my husband.
