Everything was excellent. There was great music the night we went, so noise level is a little unfair rating. Shout out to Sahara Band. Made the night.

Pretty disappointing. Visited on a Friday live music night, and they should probably fire the tired, off-key singers running through flat covers of Brown Eyed Girl. We ordered a tasty Speck Pizzette and a meh pear salad—menu is uninspiring. Our server forgot about us in between courses, took a while to order entrees. Bathroom was filthy with a broken sink. No reason to ever come back here.

The waiter was great. The pizzas are amazing. We ordered veal and it was a bit tough. The dish came with mashed potatoes and they were cold.
