    Second time dining here. I enjoyed the food so much the first time that I had to come back. The downstairs is sexier and more vibey than the upstairs, and is perfect for a romantic date night. The service is phenomenal. The wait staff are super attentive but not pushy. Cocktails are delish. Prices are what you would expecte for the area, and not for the broke. I realized my second time that they change the menu seasonably. Fancy. I went back for a specific dish, a delicate like ravioli with a sweet corn sauce. I can’t even describe it but to say it was dainty, yet rich. The sauce was creamy, a little sweet, but the cheese balanced it. In any regard they didn’t have it this time! So I’ll have to go back again when it’s back. The bread is worth purchasing for thr table. The baked clams are outstanding. Amazing flavor. I opted for a ceasar salad - very good, but dressing was a bit more anchovy tasting than I prefer. My husband got the branzino and I got the seasonal ravioli dish. I was disappointed with the flavor profile of the dish, which had caramel yogurt zucchini mint sauce. I was hopeful but it wasn’t for me. The chicken cutlet parm is grade a. The lasagna was very good and worthy of going back. They had a kimchi lasagna on the menu this time that I wanted to try, so I’ll be back. Sounds creative. Bathrooms super sexy. Nice wallpaper and clean. If their kitchen is as clean as their bathroom - bravo.
