    Fun dinner experience! Service was great and engaged. Four cheese ravioli and lobster noodle dish were well prepared albeit slightly salty. Black Manhattan was an exceptional cocktail and desserts are excellent as proven by our shared cast iron chocolate chip cookie and ice cream. Booth next to us raved about the skillet apple pie they had.

    Food and drinks were great! Love the chocolate gelato for dessert! The rotisserie chicken was delicious! Unfortunately we were seated near the door on a chilly night and it was a bit cold when a large group came. I would suggest they eliminate that table.

    Very loud. Our server seemed nice but confused. Two of us ordered soup snd entrees, when the the soup was delivered, they also brought my husband’s entree?! We called her over and and asked why his entree was brought out and she seemed confused- did she not know chicken parm is an entree. She reluctantly removed the dish and after a 15-20 minutes they brought all of our entrees at the same time. Food was good. Nice wine list.

    We were doing fine until a large party was seated near us, and our server had to focus on them. We had to seek someone (after waiting 20 minutes) to get the dessert we had ordered and the check.
