Four of us had a very lovely late lunch. The only reason I did not give the food 5 stars was the fish & Chips had a bit too much coating on it.The waitress was excellent.

Service was amazing. Staff really did a great job to go above and beyond for our birthday celebration. Food was good, traditional Italian options and generous portions. We were there on a Monday night so it was fairly quiet but you can tell the room can have a lively ambiance.

We all had the Halibut with celery root puree & haricot vert. It was absolutely delicious. Dinnertime (on a Monday) was much quieter than lunchtime so it was nice that it wasn't too loud. Also they didn't rush us out. We lingered & chatted even after we paid the bill. Much enjoyed.

My shrimp and linguine meal was excellent. The server was attentive and the price was typical for New Haven. My son had the baked chicken and enjoyed it.
