    We ate at the bar. Service by Kat & Vinnie was impeccable. Attentive but not intrusive. The background music lent a sophisticated, luxurious vibe to our evening. Would highly recommend & hope to return soon! ❤

    Very good meal, we weren’t rushed and enjoyed a leisurely evening with friends. Like the changes in set up and decor. Our server was very attentive.

    We dined on Saturday 12/14. We were seated on the 1st floor. We were able to hear the live music coming from the 2nd floor. The ambience was great. We were served by a 2 man wait staff and lacked for nothing during our meal. They were very attentive. They brought us complimentary bruschetta appetizer. We ordered off the prix fix menu which is 4 courses for $45.00. What a great value! We had the lasagna with meatballs and the beggar's purse. They were both fantastic. Don't hesitate to dine here, you won't be disappointed.
