Terrific dinner and attentive, efficient and friendly service. Noise level is high with the bar & sports tvs in the middle of the dining area, but the food was great. A fried artichoke appetizer was excellent and the olive oil accompanying bread was top notch. This restaurant has a well thought out, if pricey, wine list. Mushroom stuffed ravioli was nicely done and a grilled veal chop one of the best I’ve enjoyed in years. A great place for a special dinner.
