   Healthy oils and butter for their fats! Bread was fresh, warm and crispy! Organic ingredients and fresh fish! I recommend their salads and appetizers! Service was friendly and kind!! My wife and I had a blast!

   Where Sabatinos was, Molo is the new restaurant. Food and service was fantastic. Inventive approach for Veal Scallopini...really great. Burrata and Beets salad was delicious. They are currently transitioning in updating the building, but the temporary dining area was great, warm and you really wouldn't notice. Great first time dining and definitely will return.

   Too noisy to have table conversation. A lot of staff around but not many attentive to providing quick service.

   Food was awesome! Joking with the waiter I suggested that the chef might come out and gate some black truffle on my cacio e pepe... And he did! We all had a good laugh with him. A very enjoyable evening. A great experience with a team that produces an excellent dining experience but didn't take themselves too seriously. 100% quality experience.

   Delicious food, good service, good ambience I would give the ambiance 5, but they are under construction, and we had to sit under a tent which was kind of cold. However, overall a pleasant experience.

   The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very cosy, but it is so loud that it was hard to hear my friend across from me. If they fix that issue I would come often!

    Don’t be put off by the rude older woman when you check in - so rude and unfriendly and we were definitely wary walking in but service was thankfully warm and welcoming from there. They are doing some renovations so our table by window with view was actually by a plastic covered hole in the wall overlooking the unfinished patio. Weird for such n upscale restaurant but hopefully temporary. Drinks were quick to arrive and tasty. Food was excellent!! Great portion sizes and very flavorful. Had to pay for bread which is always a turnoff for me especially at an Italian restaurant - it was ok but wouldn’t make a point of ordering it. Best desserts!! The one thing about the whole experience which was extremely off putting especially as a woman is that there is no restroom in the restaurant. You literally have to leave the place and walk about 200 yards down a dark alley like way and then enter a dark hall to find it at the end. Not well marked at all! Definitely sketchy vibes and this situation definitely needs to be fixed imo!!
