Restaurant seems simple and unpretentious from the outside, but do not be fooled. They have exceptional service with very knowledgeable and courteous staff and simply amazing food. We had two of the night’s special: black pasta with seafood and short rib ravioli and they were incredibly delicious. The grilled octopus was we had as an appetizer was equally as good.
