    A perfect place for a holiday lunch with 6 friends. Our waiter was amazing. She was professional, caring, friendly, and on top of everything without being intrusive. We all chose the special price fixed menu which had an assortment of choices that appealed to each of us. Many of us started with the Rose Sangria special with our bread course. The appetizer that was most popular was an impressive amount of mozzarella on a bed of extremely tasty cooked peppers. A garlic shrimp appetizer smelled deliciously garlic and was gobbled up! The most popular entree was short ribs. All enjoyed the slowly cooked meat. The chicken Milanese was so good. Finally the salmon offering and the shrimp dish were delicious too. Three desserts offered on the lunch , most had the creme brûlée which was amazing. The only other dessert ordered was the cheesecake, which had a brûlée top. So delicious. Cappicinos were presented beautifully in layers and were a perfect ending to a wonderful meal. The large picture windows in the room look out on a beautiful and serene lake which added so much to the light and calmness of our dining adventure.
