    Atmosphere was great, food was great, and server (Isabella) was the best. Very knowledgeable about the menu and the four of us ordered four of her five recommendations. We were all very happy with the quality and portion size of the entrees and the service was excellent.

    Lunch today was a positive experience from being greeted at the welcoming station through the meal. Alberto Petricca is a great host and Allejandro as always is friendly and very reliable and attentive. The food was fine and the ambiance on the second floor is above the average -very lovely, quiet but not without vitality. It was a business lunch and by placing us in a corner table, they were sensitive for the need for some privacy. The price was appropriate. I'll go back for either business or pleasure.

    Last minute booking on a Monday night, friend in town who I haven't seen since before the pandemic. Our waiter Kristen was very patient with us as we were talking a lot and not paying much attention to the menu! We ordered some appetizers, entrees, dessert - everything was delicious. It was a little noisy but it was a surprisingly full house for a Monday night. Only real complaint was it was very warm in the restaurant.
