    We were seated prominently. Our waiter was attentive. The atmosphere was very noisy even though the restaurant was not very crowded. The food was good. The menu on the open table site does not match the restaurant’s menu and needs to be updated.

    Excellent service. Delicious food. Bartender got our drink order wrong but corrected it without question and at no extra charge to us. Noise level is high for quiet conversation unless you choose a booth tucked into the back area. Unable to enjoy the outside patio due to rain.

    To be honest, it’s way overhyped and way overpriced. We’ve been there once before, and thought the same thing. We decided to give a second try, wish we would have tried something else instead. I got the meatballs, but it tasted like they got their sauce out of a Chef Boyardee can. The meatballs themselves were rather bland, and lacked any real texture besides mushy. My wife got the halibut, it wasn’t bad, but for $45 we thought it should come with more than just canned corn on top. We got a side of spaghetti and marinara just to try it. Again, it tasted like it came out out of a box with Chef Boyardee sauce. Even the bread they serve as an appetizer was left untouched. There wasn’t anything we actually enjoyed. We laughed later and said we spent $80 on fish sticks and Chef Boyardee, which was honestly what it seemed like.

    Used to love this place but it just has been in decline for some time. This was start to finish bad. Cocktails were bad, appetizer undercooked, and carbonara that was basically a noodle soup. Update the menu and get back to basics.
