I will say that almost everything was perfect. I loved my Caesar and linguine with clams. However, what was weird was my wife’s chicken parm was both excellent and poor. The chicken parm? Phenomenal. The chicken was crispy and not heavily breaded, with a good amount of cheese and sauce. But the side of pasta almost tasted like it had chlorine in it. So she kept it to the side because the chicken was plenty big. Also, we got a cheesecake slice to end the night. We loved it. Obviously the cheesecake and cherry sauce on top was homemade. So homemade that one cherry still had a pit in it. I didn’t really care, but I didn’t want anyone accidentally breaking a tooth so I felt like I needed to let the kitchen know. They seemed to totally agree.

Stopped in the other night on our road trip. We've been coming here for years but hadn't been there in awhile and noticed it had a new name. Original owner now has a partner, so they just changed the name. My wife stuck with what she knew she'd like (Chicken Marsala) and wasn't disappointed. I tried the cod special which was also really good. Service was good and the prices are not bad. Well worth it; glad we stopped in again!

The restaurant is in a great location, with a menu full of delicious items and plenty of options for people with food allergies. Even with limited parking, it was very easy to find a spot. I will definitely be returning.

Though the ambiance was amazing, the food lacked the taste of authenticity I expected. Out of my party of 2 sent their food back completely and the others, including myself, decided to try and "doctor" it up with salt and pepper. It didnt help at all. The food was extremely bland. I was very disappointed because the media exposure this restaurant has been given and ambiance deserve 4-5 star cuisine.

A decent attempt at reopening this restaurant. Still working out the kinks though. The servers couldn't be more lovely, but I went there specifically for zucchini noodles. No one didn't seem to know what they were and I got served a completely different dish. No explanation to be found. I'll go back, but I'll make sure they know what I'm ordering.

Way to go Ray! Fun, exciting place. Service a little erratic and less than friendly, but the food is outstanding. It would help if the noise level could somehow be reduced. We were, not at our preference, seated in the bar area where a large party was gong on(we had early reservations and the unfriendly hostess didn't even ask our seating preference). You literally had to shout to be heard. With a little tweak here and there this could be a fun place with good food.
