We dined here twice while visiting New York City. The food is delicious and the wait staff was so friendly! We had the Caesar Salad, Rigatoni Alla Vodka, Fettuccine Bolognese, A Lot of pepperoni Pizza and chocolate mousse for dessert. We will definitely be back the next time we’re in town!

They were so accommodating to my mom (who is 93) and to me upon arrival. It took the stress out of the meal and our waiter was so patient and sweet. Food was great. It was a really nice way to spend our afternoon. Many thanks.
