    The only dish that was so so was the carrots appetizer. Interesting concept but did not work. Table next to us agreed. everything else was fantastic! Had pasta with ground duck which was phenomenal and the dourade or bream fish and ny strip were perfect. Note that the potato cloud served with the steak was a very small portion. Everything was served in a way that was easy to share with the table. Loukomades or Greek beignets for desert also delicious if a bit more dense than regular beignets. Pricey but definitely value for money. Will return.

    Service excellent. Food very good. Salad to start was refreshing after prior nights thanksgiving dinner. Both wife and I had lamb with pappardelle which paired well with recommended wine. Cannoli was excellent paired with cappuccino Not a huge fan of the decor but I'm not a fan of the more modern style. Definitely will eat here again and try something different.

    We arrived late for a birthday dinner for my elderly mother, and Armando and staff could not have been more accommodating and friendly. Truly kind and warm in every little interaction—made my mom feel very tended to and seen, which is not always the case. Armando reminded me about parking validation which I would have completely forgotten. The decor/atmosphere was really cute with the round booths and overhead planters. And our meals were good - both the pasta primavera and fish tacos - and not absurdly expensive. Overall a great option if you’re headed to a show at the convention / performing arts centers right next door.
