Service was good; we were seated (with a reservation) right away. The food lacked something, though. The pesto gnocchi was fine but the mushroom pasta really wasn't. We didn't even take it home--especially given that they provide plastic clamshell take out containers. They can be better and use compostable one. Disappointing sans the service.

We had great service at reception as well as our waiter who was able to get us what we ordered however the communication between the kitchen and wait staff seemed very poor. We ordered the bread and it never came after our drinks came and they informed us later they were completely out of bread as well as the cauliflower appetizer. My brother in-law had under cooked Chicken and nephew found a hair in his sauce after finishing his pesto gnocchi. We understand that it is very busy during the holiday and just wanted you all to know that we understand that consistency is key to a restaurant’s performance. Overall we had a nice meal together and enjoyed ourselves. Really appreciated that we were accommodated after needing to change our reservation. We will definitely be back and continue to let people know how much we love the new menu and hope you have a wonderful holiday!

As always the staff was very attentive, helpful, and friendly. The food was all delicious and cooked to perfection. We started with the roasted cauliflower appetizer, which was so tasty. The braised short rib Mac and cheese was amazing as well!
