    Had a 12:15 lunch reservation and when we entered I was concerned that we had made a poor choice of restaurants because the restaurant was virtually empty except for one or two occupied tables. Most unusual for popular restaurant at the lunch hour. We decided to stay and it turned out to be a good decision. The service was great and the food very good. One disappointment was the calamari appetizer which had a very small quantity of calamari that wasn't reflected in the price.

    Had a wonderful experience once again. The food was delicious and prepared exactly as requested. Danny was our server and Marco the busier. Both did an exceptional job. Our food came to the table and we were able to enjoy a leisurely meal. We believe Scott is the GM. Thank you to all of you.

    This dining experience was everything I wanted it to be! Delicious, divine, and the perfect place to unwind! The entire experience was just what I needed to reward myself after an exhausting work week: Incredible wine selection, relaxing atmosphere, attentive service, amazing French onion soup bursting with flavor, and the filet mignon was cooked to perfection! I will be back!
