Unfortunately they are next door to a cigar shop so if you do not enjoy that aroma ask to be seated closer to Market Street\nWe started our dinner by ordering Roasted\nArtichoke hearts, marinated olives and our waiter Fabio suggested Pizza bread with EVOO, olive tapenade. The artichokes were delivered to our table and we kept trying to get someone’s attention to bring us our silverware and napkins that were not set on the table. The olives came and then the bread with the tapenade but not the EVOO.\nThe artichokes were delicious and the presentation was beautiful. The olives were great as was the bread with the tapenade, I would have liked to have the EVOO but the tapenade was great.\nI ordered the Branzino which was supposed to be served roasted butterfly with parsley lemon butter sauce. It was not good. It was served pan fried way over done and the “sauce” served on the side was more like a mayonnaise and not good\nI told the our waiter Fabio and rather than offering to prepare it the way he asked me what I would like instead. I ordered the mussels which was also came with sautéed clams. I really did not like that either. The mussels had no flavor and the sauce was very bland. I did not mention this to our waiter who checked in with us briefly and was very hard to track down the entire meal. The restaurant was not that busy for him not to be attentive.\nMy husband and friend ordered the Cheese Wheel Pasta which was outstanding!! I would definitely order this again. My friend ordered the Artichoke Ravioli which she also said was excellent.\nI was so glad that the other dishes served at the table were great and that our friends enjoyed their meal. I was so disappointed in my meal, and the service by Fabio.","rating":{"food":2,"service":2,"ambience":2,"value":2,"noise":"QUIET","overall":2,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":19,"nickname":"Brenda","metro":{"metroId":26,"displayName":"Milwaukee","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"B","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"MUSTARD","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-04-24T15:26:02Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-04-23T18:15:00-07:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"},{"reviewId":"OT-1413688-1954-170070435277","text":"Excellent service and setting.
