The sauce on the lobster poster was delicious. However, all of the lobster was claw meat and there wasn’t much of it. The calamari was bland and we did not like the sauce.

We came as a party of 5. Everything we ordered was amazing. My mom ordered the lamb which was slightly overcooked, but other than that it was great.

Noise level was still high even though seated in a partially private area. Food was not as good as the last time I dined there. Lobster Fettuccini was oily, lobster overcooked and the pasta did not taste fresh.
