    Loved the seafood risotto. Many restaurants make it too salty but theirs was not!

    The room is lovely. The food is good. The service is slow at best. We were there at 5:45 and it was not that crowded. I think the kitchen has problems as well as the servers. There doesn't seem to be anyone in charge.

    Overall disappointing experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was quaint and relaxed. Service was fantastic, our server was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food however completely missed the mark. Maybe an off night for the kitchen but our entire group was taken aback with how off each entrée was.
