Delicious food in a lovely setting with impeccable service. Fried zucchini app is a standout. The signature salad was perfection. Shrimp/scallops on ravioli outstanding. It is a bit hard to chat because of noise level but not enough to keep us from returning.

Always a great experience here! My wife and I were married here on November 10, 2023. We decided to return for our 1st anniversary. We had the same dish as at our wedding. It was an amazing experience.
