Francesco welcomed us, David was our server. He was an excellent host, he was very attentive, he made recommendations and tasty food pairings. The Toro old Fashioned is a highlight to kick off the dinner. The mixologist was working his craft, very fun to watch while enjoying very yummie food. Dessert was thé bomb, (literally and figuratively, sweets all over).
