Arrived before Happy Hour ended, which is 6 P.M. Discounted drinks and small plates. The old fashion was excellent. Our party ordered a variety of small plates to share, including small pizza, Fritti (fried seafood and vegetables) and Stromboli (provolone and salami with homemade marinara sauce). All were very good with Stromboli taking the first place. For the main event I ordered Osso Buco. The Osso Buco was served over mashed potatoes and spinach in a rich gravy. This was the first time I had pork Osso Buco, smaller than a veal Osso Buco but a very nice portion, nevertheless. The Osso Buco was Outstanding. Finished the evening with the Lemon Penna Cotta. Besides the food, I have to shout out to Sean, our server. It has been a long time since I had such personal and attentive service. He was fantastic along with all the support staff. Sean made us feel as though we had our own personal butler. ENJOY, we did, and we will be back.

We were turned away at the door. Hostess said unfortunately we are all booked up tonight. I asked the whole night? She said yes. We got back in the car and I was immediately able to find a table 45 minutes later.

The food was delicious from the caprese salad appetizer to the risotto and the snapper. Even though I wasn't able to get my osso buco, the snapper was light and tasteful.
