    The meal was an exquisite delight from start to finish, beginning with a rich, velvety lobster bisque that was both creamy and bursting with the delicate flavor of sweet lobster. The calamari that followed was tender and lightly fried, offering a crispy, golden crust with a delightful seasoning that enhanced its natural sweetness. The veal roll was the star of the show, tender and perfectly cooked, with a succulent filling of flavorful stuffing that paired beautifully with the savory sauce, creating a harmony of textures and tastes that left a lasting impression. This meal truly showcased the art of fine dining, with each dish thoughtfully prepared and expertly balanced.

    Good food and good value for a pre-theater dinner. Waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. General commentary for most wait staff these days and a pet peeve of mine- like many others says “are we” when asking “we diners” a question. Not sure who instructed wait staff to say “we” instead of “you” but it’s incorrect. They are not at table with “us.” Endeavoring to Include themselves in the diner’s experience is overly familiar, incorrect and at times condescending. Nonetheless, They work hard. Tip well!

    I love the home cooking feel of this restaurant. I’m gluten free, and I found plenty of options. Though the pizza looked sooooo good- I wished it was gluten free. Was a little Greek and a little Italian mixed together.
