Absolutely outstanding. The sirloin was a huge cut, and it was one of the best steaks I have ever had. We will definitely be returning soon.

Great service and food. Highly recommend. Good wine selection that's reasonably priced. Excellent chicken parm. Excellent creme brulee, could use fresh berries to break up the rich custard. Our table was a little tight next to another table and the wall. We would go back.

The food was amazing - calamari, first rate! Service was so so. One meal out of four was delivered 15-minutes after everyone else’s-nothing was proffered to make up for the wait and so that was a disappointment. Had to ask for our take home box because the waitress forgot to bring it and we had to wait a very long time for the check. The restaurant was not busy at all so we couldn’t figure out what was up. I would go back, though, because the food was wonderful!!

I do realize that it is Christmas, but there was a party going on in the main bar. Felt like it was very disruptive, and the entire restaurant was very loud

The waitress would ask a quick question when she approached the table and would practically run away when she got the one word answer she wanted. There was no time for any follow up questions. I’ve come to this establishment for 25 years and have always received great service and the knowledge that the wait staff had on the food selection or any other request/question was top notch. I don’t like to critique waiters and waitresses because I know they work hard but you have to have some sort of sense of customer service and common decency if that is your job. My friend and I felt we were a nuisance to her and we did not make any special requests during the meal, not that should make a difference in how she treated us. The only time that she seemed pleasant towards us was when she brought the bill over. We were not pleased with the service, unfortunately. I hope she comes to learn that patrons of a restaurant are not just a number but are people who may ask questions or have a comment but if not given an opportunity to do so. it then leaves the patrons frustrated and feeling completely ignored. The gentleman who brought out our waters had a much pleasant demeanor and I wish he was our waiter because he wouldn’t have made us feel like we were just there to be a waste sometime’s time. Perhaps some sort of training on how to treat a patron who is paying good money for decent service could help this situation.

This is my second time visiting this restaurant and it was lovely again. On Mondays bottles of wine are half price! So enjoyed a bottle of Prosecco, eggplant rollotini and Pollo con broccoli rabe. Delicious! I would definitely recommend.
