    I always enjoy the ambiance, service and presentation. The noise level today seemed noisier than I remember and I would prefer a bit less. Still a 5- star to me.

    Very nice place. Appetizers were excellent, especially the shrimp cocktail. The main courses were basically good, with the short ribs very tender. The paella was ok but the mussels were a bit on the tough side and the risotto was a little dry but the other seafood items were good.

    My husband and I take a late diner, after the opera. They have a late diner menu with enough choice to satisfy anyone. We took a Cesar salad. Nice plate, good taste, fresh ingredients.
