   All those the service was excellent tonight whoever was in the kitchen had an extremely heavy hand with the lemon. Both my wife and I like lemon, but this was far too excessive to allow us to enjoy our meal. What a shame.

   Great Mother's Day brunch outside and food was warm and prompt. Service was good but not excellent but it was a busy day for the staff I am sure. Brunch was amazing and the fritatta was delicious as the breakfast burger and panini.

   The server was very nice and responsive however the food took a while to come out. Half of the plates were great and half were so so. One of the pastas was great (linguine with clams) and the other one was not very good (cacio e pepe bucatini) and we ate less than half. Kind of loud, the server couldn’t hear me at times. Lots of menu options.

   Overall very very good. Service was great. Noise level on a Wednesday night was very good. No trouble conversing. Entres were pipeing hot but the eggplant app could have been hotter.

   Warmly greeted upon entry. Set us at type of seating I requested. Delivered food on a timely basis, it was warm and fresh. Right amount of customer care not over the top.

   Despite a reservation, we had to wait thirty minutes to be seated. The manager stopped by once to tell us five or ten minutes but NEVER stopped at our table. It was two of our birthdays which I mentioned on the reservation and told our waitress but we did not even get a 'happy birthday'. Our bread for the table came after about ten minutes and our waters were never refilled until after the meal. The Rigatoni Bolognese had very little bolognese on it and the Caesar Salad which inexplicably has balsamic dressing on it was not good and should be avoided. The manager never came over. Epic fail and a terrible experience for our birthdays.

   We dined outdoors in perfect weather. Our waitress was above and beyond ! The 4 of us particularly enjoyed the bread and dipping olive oil combination, the charred peach salad was excellent! 3 of us added chicken to the salad: wasn’t needed. It was perfect on its own and lots of left overs. Our 4th diner had arugula salad with salmon added-we were jealous. The salmon was cooked perfectly! Highly recommend for a leisurely weekday lunch on the patio with friends and family.
