    We were seated in a narrow alcove right next to the kitchen making it impossible to even walk around the table. The food portions were large but the quality was mediocre at best and expensive for what it was. Service was satisfactory. We will not be returning.

    I go to this restaurant often because I like the ambience and location. However last night the food wasn't up to par but it may have been because we're in the middle of a holiday and perhaps the regular chef wasn't on duty. The expensive pasta was soggy and tasteless. I also seem to run into the same issue here when I'm with another woman. They always want to sit us in the very back until I complain. Would this happen to two men dining out? The wait staff is lovely and attentive.

    Broiled branzino, large enough for two, was perfect. Restaurant was packed but service was timely, wait staff friendly. I love this restaurant.

    We’ve eaten there many times over the years. They seem to have added many more tables in the same space. We were seated before our official reservation time. Check. We set a record for ordering, food arrival, drinks, eating and paying in about an hour. Surprised. Staff was kind and professional as always.
