    Our waitress was absolutely amazing but the rest of the staff was running like a headless chicken. Completely discombobulated, I get the idea of them trying to be helpful but they actually do more harm than good. We had a good amount of left overs so another person came and offered to box it. The amazing waitress offered us experimental cocktails so we staid probably 20/30 min after we paid the bill. Our packaged food was never given back to us nor we saw the employee that took it away. It’s not about the food but the principle and the service.

    We were not happy with our initial table but the manager graciously moved us to another table. Our server Gustavo was terrific. We ordered agnolotti and pollo al mattone and both were delicious.

    The atmosphere of this place is lovely. They really spent the money and some thought on the decor, lighting, etc. My only design concern is that when you dine here at night, the combination of the low lighting and the tiny, dark grey font on a beige background menu makes reading the menu difficult. The food is all top notch, and though the prices are a bit high, they are not that different than all the other fine dining establishments throughout the city. Our service was iffy. There were long lags between people checking in on us and we wanted an additional drink and to add to an order during those lags. And this was not just due to the fact that they were busy. Our waiter was chatting with a co-worker for much of the time we were hoping someone might ask us if we wanted dessert. We eventually flagged someone down, but it's preferable that we don't have to do so. I've been here other times when the service was fine, so this may be a one-time thing.
