    We always enjoy dining here and once again did not disappoint. To begin with the do have good happy hour special in the bar. Keep that in mind. Dinner was great service & food. Loved the lasagna and we had the sea bass special. It was great but for $70 I would suggest asking the price of the special before ordering. Or the waiter could have shared that info. Regardless, we love dining out for nice food $ service. We prefer dining here rather that Bristol’s.

    Great date night dinner choice. We had never been to this restaurant and so I picked it based on reviews and the menu. The food and service were excellent. We had the beef medallions and the tortellini. Both were very well prepared and delicious. The arancini was amazing and not like any that I have previously eaten. Finally, the tiramisu shined! I definitely recommend and will be back.

    We've done the gazebo-thing before. Great ambiance and the temp outside helped to make the temp inside the gazebo very nice. Service was excellent and 2 bottles of wine, plus 4 entrees and 2 shared salads made the dining experience superb. Definitely worth the money.
