    My aunt and I went for a late lunch, around 3:30 on a Thursday. Our server was amazing. Very personable and attentive. My lemon drop martini was one of the best I've ever had. Wine selection was good. Food was amazing! Crusty rolls with oil brought to the table before our meal were warm and delicious. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend.
