Nice dinner for four, one of whom is gluten intolerant; everyone left well satisfied. Good menu options, including salmon accompanied by a delish orange sauce; short ribs and the gluten free pasta. Nice to see so many gluten free options. Appetizers and dessert were enjoyed by all. Marcello, one of the owners, found the time to converse with diners. The wait staff all worked together to keep the dining room flowing. Can’t wait to return!
