    Service was amazing. Staff really did a great job to go above and beyond for our birthday celebration. Food was good, traditional Italian options and generous portions. We were there on a Monday night so it was fairly quiet but you can tell the room can have a lively ambiance.

    The menu was diverse and filled new foods we never enjoyed before. And the food was outstanding. The service was excellent. Our waiter anticipated our every need. He was friendly and helpful and made us feel as though we were his only table. The meal was expensive but it was fine dining. One of the best restaurants we have ever eaten in. And a great choice if you are non dairy.

    Wonderful example of what an old fashioned Italian restaurant should be. Founded 1938, welcoming, friendly, everyone (and us) having a great time, great (no excellent) food, Very few modestly priced Italian restaurants are worth a special detour but this is definitely one
