    The best of the three meals we had was the sea bass. It was melt in your mouth and flavor was amazing. The combination of vegetables and herbs was interesting and made the experience. And presentation was also well done. The bolognese pasta was also very flavorful and my friend enjoyed it a great deal. I had the Caesar salad, which was very good. The pesto tortellini left me looking for a different dish. It promised more flavor than it delivered. But the pasta was cooked well and serving generous. I did wish I’d gotten the sea bass or fettuccini. The lemon cake was light like a mousse, teased with the flavor, and excellent. We all loved it. Our server, Marie, was excellent. Attentive without being overly so, and somewhat helpful with the menu. Just wish she’d been more outright about the pesto. It provided a lovely setting for friends celebrating one birthday as well as Christmas. It

    Food was excellent. We sat on the patio and were ignored most of the night. It took forever for waitress to take our order. The patio is pretty at night, with fire warmers and string lights.
