    Although the lighting was not to my liking, dining at the bar was quite nice. We shared appetizers of artichoke bruschetta and the prosciutto, both of which were very good. The white ragu tajarin and the linguini alla vongole were both excellent. The linguini had a wonderful subtle heat to it, and the portions were spot on. We ended the meal with a pistachio gelato affogato…different, but really yummy! Look forward to another visit in the not too distant future.

    Excellent food with outstanding service. Ambiance and reasonable pricing makes this restaurant a favorite before a show at DPAC.

    Absolutely recommend the TAJARIN ARRAGOSTA. One of the best pastas I’ve had in while. Bursting with flavor.

    The food was very good. My wife rarely eats risotto at restaurants as she better than most restaurants but she tried it and cleaned her plate and told me it was soupier than she is use to but she very much liked it. I had the catch of the day which was very good. The restaurant is nice and cozy. Our waiter was very attentive. We will be coming back.

    This was a perfect place for a pre-show dinner! The vibe is the perfect blend of casual and elegant. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! Our server was friendly, attentive, and gave great suggestions once we told her it was our first time visiting. The salad was super fresh and bright, the pasta was delicious, and the steak was perfectly cooked and tender. We will definitely be coming back!
