My second time here and did not disappoint. The grilled eggplant with mozzarella was delicious. Our entrees were the veal Marsala which was tender, the roasted potatoes were yummy and the green beans were crisp. Too full for dessert but the cappuccino was very good. Service was good without being overbearing. Will be back.

I was hesitant at first with this being attached to a hotel, but the food was exquisite--perfect for a date night or an above average cost for dinner. The burrata was out of this world and the lobster roll had a hidden mayo/lemon combo that had me tossing up my hands with excitement. My wife had the Salmon over a pumpkin and curry squash that was EASILY the star of the show. We both left planning for when we could make the drive back for another meal. Highly recommended.
