Service was slow even though many empty tables and plenty of staff. Food was ok. Got chicken scallopini - a bit overdone and no capers

The food was great, huge portions our waiter was attentive. Cocktails were pricey but delicious. We were at a high top with weird backless stools, didn’t like those very much. Overall had a wonderful dinner.

Made reservations because i saw the scallops with the risotto. They took it off the menu! We wanted the small charcuterie plate they only had the large on the menu. It was two pieces of salami, two pieces of baloney, two pieces of ham, and a couple of slices of cheese!! My wife said " They bought a hoagie threw away the bun and threw this on a plate!! I had the short rib ragu . I found three pieces of meat and the rest was noodles! My wife's Gnocchi must have sat under the heat lamp until the found some meat for mt entree . Our server Emma was fantastic!! She ran her but off trying to keep all of her tables provisioned This place used to be great1 Not sure what happened

We waited at the host stand for almost 5 minutes, bypassed by two waitresses before the host appeared. Once we were sat, we waited awhile longer. Once the waitress came, we ordered our drinks and appetizer. She never checked on us until our appetizer was brought which is when we ordered our food. She never checked on us again. The holiday sangria was bland as well as the pasta dish. My friend’s gnocchi was undercooked but she never came back for us to tell her so when she finally reappeared we just had her take it off the bill. In her defense, it looked like there were only two servers working that night, but there were other staff around that could have picked up the slack. I used to work in the service industry, it’s a team effort.

Seemed very understaffed, especially for a 7:30 reservation on a Friday night. The charcuterie board meats were very underwhelming. Deli Mortadella and salami don’t necessarily scream this is worth $25 a board. The food was inconsistent. A few of us ordered the same short rib ragu and each plate had varying amounts of short rib and ricotta. Mine had very little of either. The drinks were great and the atmosphere was great. I’ve had great experiences here before. Maybe it was just and off night.
