Excellent meal. Parmesan chicken and the Spaghetti (actually Bucatini) and meatballs were fabulous and portions were very generous. Our server, Nicole, was very attentive and helped. The parking was the only problem because lighting is too dim particularly at the driveway. They had valet service but no signage to alert drivers as they enter.

Our dinner experience was perfection from start to finish. I asked to be seated in a booth, which was honored. It is much quieter for chatting. The ambiance of the restaurant was lively and pleasant. The food was top-notch. We shared a Caesar salad and enjoyed the Bolognese. Making our evening even more special was our waitress, Michi. She was outstanding. Knowledgable easy to talk to, and never making us feel rushed throughout the entire evening. We look forward to coming back when we are in the area again.
