    Always great experience. Food and service is on point. They brought back the outside bubbles which made for a cozy date night.

    Our server was very nice. The food was ok but just too salty. Next time I’ll ask for no salt on my scallops made it hard to enjoy and there were zero desserts left to order because everything (except gelato) had nuts! As a person with a nut allergy it’s nice when restaurants have desserts other than cold desserts without nuts.

    Three of us ate lunch today and had a wonderful experience. We ordered the tuna melt special, gourmet cheeseburger and the chicken salad. All three were very tasty. We shared the arancini as an appetizer. It was an excellent effort and I appreciated the small size so we could share them. As the place filled up, it was difficult to hear our discussion, but that’s not an unusual occurrence. Overall, it’s a lovely place environment with great service.

    A beautiful place dressed up like fine rustic dining, yet puts all the pressure on the wait staff who can not possibly keep up. We were a party of 4, the first time and a party of 6 this last time. The food was delightful with the brussel sprouts being a huge hit, yet the fried items were lacking the hot crisp and instead clocked in with a warm tough crust. A few of us had gotten drinks, at no point was anyone asked or brought a refill, not even water. The wait person rushed around trying to clear our appetizers prior to our meals, which left a few with partially eaten salads when the entrees arrived. Desserts were verbally listed to us like a common diner with not explaination of what it included. We are still at a lose of what was in the middle of the slightly flavored peanut butter pie and chocolate flour less cake. Although the heavily caramel slightly brownie was decadent, the icy ice cream was not needed. Overall not sure if we will give it another try. Maybe if management was more involved, they could see the opportunities to add a few front of house assistances to upgrade the experience.
