    We enjoyed an excellent meal. Caesar salad was uniquely dressed, very tasty. My wife ordered the swordfish which was perfectly prepared. We love the use of grains like farro and polenta. I dined on the chicken piccatta. Delicious. Above average portion sizes on both plates. Our waitress, Alyssa, provided outstanding service throughout our meal. No hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

    The place is a lot of fun. The servers are usually well prepared. However, as of lately they have not been answering open table messages and they have been ignoring special requests such as candles at the table which, they have honored in the past when marked as special occasions or celebration. The food was also noticeably less flavorful as well. The plating was good though. It's just become apparent that as of late, the overall experience is 3/5 across the board. The prices were decent though, I just wonder if a new person has been behind the cooking.
