    Ben was excellent once again! He was very helpful in offering suggestions and very attentive with his service. The food was amazing as usual but we wouldn’t have expected anything else. We were celebrating my husbands 50th and it was just perfect!

    We had a fantastic dinner at IBN tonight. Out waiter was fantastic....super friendly with lots of great suggestions and wonderful service. The food was incredible and the wine suggestion was delicous as well. We enjoyed the calamari as a starter. Perfectly cooked with a great tomato sauce. We had the salsiccia....a huge portion, with just the right amount of spice in the sausage and veal sauce. We also had Scoglio. A huge portion filled with so much perfectly cooked seafood. The decadent buttery sauce was delightful and it was perfectly cooked. For dessert we shared a beautifully moist and delicous tiramisu. A wonderful meal, fantastic service...looking forward to our next visit already!
