    We had a 7:45 pm reservation, arrived about 15 mins early and had to wait 30-40 mins to get our table. We stood in the bar while waiting. Bar was fairly loud. We enjoyed gin rummy drinks. Our table was in a quieter side room. We shared the chorizo-stuffed dates as a starter. Very tasty. Hubby had the gyro and love it. I had the mixed grill which was excellent. We shared the creme brulee for dessert. It was excellent. We took a slice of key lime pie home to our daughter. She thought it was fabulous.

    We loved our visit! Beautiful place. Food was perfect. Our waiter was very good but he was defiantly rushing our dinner. Was very persistent in taking our complete dinner order as soon as our cocktail’s arrived. That was our only complaint…. Whole pricey dinner was felt really rushed…and our reservation was for 5:45🫣

    Another perfect evening. For the appetizer, we went with the Arancini. Light and delicious. The salads were great. House made croutons and dressing were delicious. For entrees, we enjoyed the Veal Parmigiana and Chicken Marsala. Each couldn’t have been better. Full of flavor, perfect portion size. I want to highlight the Gnocchi with the cheese sauce I had on the side. This was heavenly…light but bursting with flavor. Wouldn’t change a thing. 10/10!

    A delightful dining experience ! Ambiance and food were excellent. Ryan, our server, was very knowledgeable. Service was taken care of by a whole team, so we were well taken care of. We enjoyed the Fried Cauliflower, Roasted Hen of the Woods, and Albondigas. With a bottle of delicious white wine our bill was a little over $100. This is a real gem.
