   WOW! Amazing experience of dining. The entire night we felt like we were given such attention and guidance from the perfect appetizers to the Primi to the ensalada to the pasta and bone-in-ribeye! Wow! Dawn and the entire staff were welcoming and attentive —-we must have had six wait staff taking care of us. We felt we were in the kind of care European restaurants strive for…can’t wait to come back.

   Server, Dawn, outstanding. Helped us choose entree. Happy to split porterhouse steak cooked perfectly. Paired a great Italian red. Super unusual salad. There is a chefs table (bar seat) overlooking kitchen. We will try that next time. Manager attentive as well. Was a great Christmas Eve dinner.

   Ordered the porterhouse and ribeye, both were fantastic! The gnocchi is extremely small but tasty.

   The seating was absolutely terrible, it ruined my Birthday. They put us by the door (it was 20 degrees that night) and the table was smaller than a tray table. Our waiter was nice and did his job but nothing extra and very straight forward. It was the Holiday and my Bday, he didn’t make us feel special for our first visit. The terrible table was right in the middle of the floor. It was very difficult to take our coats off and no coat service was offered. Note, they took other peoples coats and not ours and we were the minority in the room. The food was superb but the steaks are overpriced for an Ohio based non Michelin restaurant. The manager was very kind and apologized for our experience but I wish I had chose somewhere else for my Birthday dinner.

   Wonderful venue with a fun buzz of differing ages. Service was lovely and the food delicious. We sat by the fireplace and the whole room was aglow

    Food and service was excellent. The acoustics carry loudly with everyone talk in a cozy place so so wouldn’t recommend for a “quiet getting to know” first date but definitely bring them there on a one month anniversary haha
