Our party of three went to dinner there since we had tickets to a concert nearby. Boy, were we pleasantly surprised! Our server was caring but not overbearing He also knew the menu. The food quality was great and replicated old world Italian. Overall an excellent experience. The only thing in my opinion that needs a freshening would be the wine by the glass options. Very limited in nature.

Trama, once again did not disappoint! Excellent food, service, cocktails and ambience. Brought my family there all eight adults were happy and they gave us a round table which was great! I have traveled the world, ate everywhere and was super happy about Trama and how they took care of the most important people in my life! Thank you!
