perfecto - didn't have to ask for a thing. Bread was hot; waiter worked at the original 17th Street Address location and has been at this location for 14 years. The pan roasted yellow tail with lump crab meat, capers, tomatoes in a white wine sauce with asparagus on the side was to die for. Wish I had some right now. Thank you.

3 of us were there on a Sunday around 6:30 and we had a very nice quiet dinner. We shared a calamari and shrimp appetizer with martini. For dinner we had prime rib, shrimp scampi and salmon. The salmon was on top of a pear, walnut and goat cheese salad that was delicious. Service was fantastic. Great overall experience.

Service was a little slow in the beginning. We ordered drinks right away but it took a long time for them to come. Bread & water didn’t come until after the drinks when the waiter noticed we did not have it.

The food is fantastic, the service is excellent and the restaurant is quiet (the rooms are not crowded, the tables are spaced far apart and the carpet absorbs sound).
