    We really enjoyed our dinner. Everything was wonderful: the appetizers, main course, and dessert. Loved the risotto with mushrooms! I was so excited to be eating gluten free bread warm out of the oven which I have sadly been unable to do for years — since I’m gluten sensitive. The service was really excellent! We will be coming again! Don’t change anything! Thank you so much!

    What a wonderful reception we received upon arriving; each of our party of five was greeted individually as if we were family members. Each dish was as delicious as it was beautifully plated (I had the shrimp stuffed with crabmeat and a marvelous sauce). The service was impeccable with the waitstaff being there when we needed him but he didn't hover. Thank you, RT's, from a group of reuniting friends who had THE BEST time in a remarkable setting.

    We had a lovely pre Christmas lunch there today. The food was excellent and the wait staff were really very nice. We had chicken entrees and both (parmigiana and marsala) and both were excellent. Lots of food so we had leftovers for the next day. Definitely putting this on our repeat visit list.
