Overall the service and staff were great and it was great that they were flexible to our needs and allergies. I was also happy that they were able to take my credit card as a hold to ensure we paid for the dining (not the guests we invited). Only negative was that my husbands eggs ordered as poached came out very firm (no ooze), so I know he was disappointed. Other than that I love the food it is wholesome, hearty and tasty.

The staff made us feel very welcome despite the fact that we were late because of city traffic. They were aware that we were going to a show at 7pm so they gave us menus to look at while we were waiting for a table to be set up. We ordered when we sat down and our meals came out very quickly. The food was delicious…. the best risotto I have had in a long time! We left the restaurant 45minutes after we arrived and left in time to see beginning of the show! Thank you so much!
