It’s a terrific spot with very tasty food, nice vibe, loud but not deafening! Gave only four stars for service because the staff was solid but not exceptional, and the kitchen struggled a bit to keep up with a busy - but not crazy - Friday night crowd.

Went to Siena for a Monday lunch with friends. The food and service were wonderful and the room is bright and welcoming. However, the music was so loud that it was, at times, difficult to have a discussion. We asked for the music level to be lowered but it remained unreasonably loud.

A wonderful dining experience. We were greeted promptly on our arrival and shown to our table Great service. We started with the Beet Salad and Meatballs. Entrees were Branzino and Caci de Pepe. Everything was delicious. Desert shared chocolate Gelato- incredible.delicious coffee was topped it all off. We decided we would return. The noise level was due to the liveliness of people dining and conversing. We were able to hold a conversation throughout the evening.
