Wow the food here is absolutely delicious . We started with the oysters and the Wagyu tartare, both were incredible and I had the black cod and my husband had the pasta for dinner and it was amazing. Service from Erick was with a smile and very friendly atmosphere. It’s a bit small, with only one bathroom and was busy on a Saturday night, but we’ll definitely be back!

So much better than my last visit. I chose the Giardino Stromboli, stuffed with lots of cheese and veggies, which was delicious. It was quieter than usual, but it was Tuesday and not crowded. Service was top notch!
