The only thing that surprises me is that still many people haven’t heard of the restaurant. That blows my mind! The food is exceptional and the staff is always extremely friendly.

We stood in the crowded entrance ( no vestibule or benches etc) for about 40 minutes. We were finally seated and no one came with water, bread etc for about 25 minutes when we flagged someone down. My friend and I ordered the “special” which was basically a bowl of thin spaghetti with sauce that could have come from a jar.!it was topped by a few pieces of shrimp and salmon. It was so mousy in the Place that we could not carry on a conversation. I felt embarrassed that I had brought my friends there for a special occasion (They had never been there before) we skipped dessert although I had planned to have a birthday candle on my friend’s piece of cake. Very disappointed!

The food is wonderful, and the service is outstanding. We are always greeted as friends by Moe the owner, who wears the hat. He is charming and stops by at every table to inquire how your dinner is and if you are enjoying your evening. We always stop here for dinner, whenever we see a concert at the Mayo Arts Center. We have enjoyed several different items from the menu including appetizers and desserts and have never been disappointed. The food is hot, delicious and the portions are decent. I usually end up giving my husband half of my dinner, since it is too much for me. The service staff is friendly, considerate and always at your disposal to make your evening unforgettable. The ambience is also warming and welcoming. The music on Saturdays also makes the evening extra special. Please make a reservation and try this "gem".
