The food is always top notch here and wait staff attentive. My wife and I really love this place. The food is a little pricy but delicious. One think I must mention is the fact they have changed the glasses they use for espresso martinis. The waitress told us that the manager swears hat they are they hold the same volume as the previous glass. I don't believe it and I am most likely not alone in this perception. Even if the manager is right it gives people the impression of "shrinkflation". They need to go back to the old glasses.
