    We've been to this restaurant a number of times and it has not disappointed. Friday night we ordered dishes we had not had before , each of which was delicious. Attentive staff, lovely ambience. the portions were sufficiently large that we ended up taking home half our entrees and ate them the next night for dinner--equally delicious. Highly recommend.

    We enjoyed going out for dinner, and this was an experience. The server, Max, was excellent. He told us every dinner special with flair and personality, making every dish sound perfect. At his recommendation, we tried the tuna appetizer on pillow filo dough puffs; wow! We shared the beet salad (excellent), and the crab cakes were delicious. For dinner, the lamb chops were spectacular. We received a visit from Pete, who showed so much care for the details of the gorgeous Mediterranean interior, and Barbara, who ensured everything was perfect. Their care made us feel genuinely valued. We will make this a regular night out.
