Unfortunately the food is mediocre at best. Basic restaurant chain food and service was what we’ve become accustomed to, nothing special here.

This was a very lovely and fun experience!! Yes, being there on a date with a person you like is a true amazing experience but when the establishment and the staff is attentive, respectful and has great recommendations. I truly apologize about the fact I don’t remember the name of my waiter.

Excellent food and service! I appreciate the broad menu of real Italian dishes, not just pasta. I had a risotto that was absolutely delicious with just the right kick and the fish was cooked to perfection. Nice wine list!
