    1st time visiting! 5:30 reservation, earlier than normal. No trouble getting seated on a Tuesday night in the middle of winter. Staff were fantastic introducing themselves and getting us seated and started. Oysters were delicious. Wine was served quickly and fresh, and full of taste. Halibut and Short Rib rigatoni were cooked just right…the risotto paired with the halibut was a perfect match. The gravy and mushrooms added great flavor to the soft and savory short rib (good size portion too…i couldn’t finish it!). Finished w dessert, a small cannoli…the filling was delicious. Added a dark Espresso Martini for dessert to cap the evening. Could not have asked for a better dinner experience. We will be back again!
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on 27 February 2025
    What an incredible first visit, Jon! From the fantastic service to the perfectly prepared halibut and short rib rigatoni, we’re so happy to hear your experience was top-notch. And finishing the night with a cannoli and an Espresso Martini? That’s the perfect way to end an unforgettable meal. We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

    It was a perfect place for a quiet Sunday night dinner with my wife. Service and food was excellent. The room was cozy and quiet so we could talk to each other without rasing our voices. Make sure you check the menu before you go since dishes on Yelp reviews are no longer served. Cost is typical of any post COVID quality restaurant. We will definitely go back.
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on 27 February 2025
    We’re so glad you and your wife had a wonderful Sunday night dinner with us, Greg! A cozy, quiet atmosphere paired with excellent food and service is exactly what we aim for. Great tip on checking the menu beforehand—we always recommend visiting our website for the most up-to-date offerings rather than relying on third-party platforms like Yelp. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    My husband and I requested a table near the fireplace when we made our reservations. And that is where we sat. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary which they were informed of while reserving a table. Everyone on staff that greeted us made it a point to congratulate us, which was very nice. Our server, Helga, was very sweet and attentive to our needs, even taking several photos of us to memorialize the evening. The food was cooked perfectly, and delicious as it always is. The owner even stopped by our table to introduce himself and congratulate us. It was a very special night for my husband and I and everyone there made it feel that way. Thank you all so much for a fun, and wonderful evening for us!
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on 27 February 2025
    It was truly an honor to be part of such a special milestone, Pamela! We’re thrilled that everything—from your cozy fireplace table to Helga’s attentive service to Nick’s warm welcome—made your 50th anniversary so memorable. Your kind words mean the world to our team, and we can’t wait to welcome you and your husband back for another romantic and delicious evening. Cheers to many more years of love and celebration!

    We had a later reservation and the waitress may have been tired . Understandable given the weekend. Most of the food was ok except my wife’s steak was overcooked. Big difference from med rare to med well . Unfortunately she didn’t tell me or I would have had them take it back . Anyway I think it’s a bit overpriced for quality of the food
    Teresa's PrimeResponded on 18 February 2025
    Thank you for your feedback, Adian. We understand how important steak temperature is, and we’re sorry your wife’s was overcooked. We always want our guests to love their meals, so don’t hesitate to let us know next time! We appreciate your thoughts and hope to welcome you back for a better experience.
