We really enjoyed our cocktails before (Old Fashioned and Manhattan). Brussels sprouts were fantastic. We ordered 3 half portions of different pastas - Bucatini, Lumache, and Pappadelle - all were excellent. We ordered dessert, the chocolate torte, but after the order was put in, our server came back and said they were out of it. We did not order anything in its place. Very nice experience, this was our second time to this location and we will go again.

The six of us enjoyed our Christmas Eve meal. Bread and beverages arrived swiftly, as we were greeted by our waiter. Chilled salads and appetizer arrived in a reasonable period. Waiter was excellent: pleasant, committed to good service, and in the background. Entrees arrived piping hot. You can tell we enjoyed our meal, and so will you!
