    Our server, Cris, was amazing. He was attentive and he gave us honest feedback on the dishes. The food was good, small portions but good. The scallops and spicy vodka rigatoni were both very good. On a side note, the bathrooms were disgusting and very messy.

    The process of getting checked in and to our table was disorganized. While our server was lovely, the service was extremely slow and the volume level was candidly unbearable. We were shouting to even have a conversation.

    Food is always good and meet expectations. So I often use this restaurant to have a dinner with my guests. On the other hand, it’s very crowded and noisy. I highly recommend to take seats outside.
