    From the minute we walked through the door to check out… service was AMAZING! 5 star worthy hands down! Very professional and well mannered with a touch of humor. Dining is romantic and intimate. The food was sooo good. They have uniques dishes that incorporate flavors you’ve never had before.

    Very average entrees. Had the lasagna and pasta special with pork ragu. The tuna cone appetizer was excellent. Service was below average. Would not go back.

    THE best garlic bread anywhere! My only complaint is that it's not very close to where we live. Best food and service.

    Consummately reliable over the years, no exception this time. Packed room but conversation not swamped by noise. Servers have mastered the art of timely presence and delivery, and have deep knowledge. Mussels didn't suit my stomach but the tuna cones are as irresistible as ever, and the creme brûlée was masterful. Book, and sit back.
