    Please order the sausage and walnut ravioli. Also, the black pasta with seafood, your taste buds will thank you. Service was on point. Great atmosphere. Waiting in front was a little tight, but will probably NEVER have a bad meal here.

    With a longstanding reservation, we were kept waiting a full half hour before being seated. Food and service were excellent, but the noise level kept increasing even as the restaurant began to empty out.
