The choice of two comfortable dining rooms each with its own vintage bars make dining and conversation a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Both bars feature a delicious and moderately priced food menu. The menu is Italian with seafood specials such as grilled octopus and dover sole. Saloon steaks and veal chops are legendary.

We had a wonderful dinner and a very lovely romantic setting. The restaurant has beautiful old world charm, and details with exposed brick and the beautiful old bar, the iron staircase and the cellar. We all enjoyed our food, and the wine selection was very nice. My seafood risotto was loaded with seafood and my husband’s veal shank was big and very flavorful. And I’m glad we each saved room for dessert. The only downside was there were no specials. And I regret not getting an appetizer because there was no bread or salad. We just waited for our entrées.

The sweet onion crepe and spinach gnocchi were just as delicious as we remembered them. The pistachio cake was a standout and made our whole night. Our only complaint was with the dover sole, which was fishy and kind of tough.
