                    Great dinner. The waitress let us sit for a very long time once we were done to chat. We appreciated that!

                    My sisters and I had a lovely lunch seated in the side patio of the restaurant. We had an 11:30 reservation mid-week, so the restaurant was not that crowded or noisy. My sisters all ordered the Chicken Piccata (their favorite dish) and I ordered the Ragu Bianco, which I loved! The veal was very tender and served in bite size pieces making it very easy to eat. Our server was polite and attentive to our needs.
