    The service was exemplary and the food was good but we were seated next to a family of three very young children who behaved as children do. We should have asked to be moved.

    You couldn’t have been better!! Jack did an excellent job serving our table. He was attentive without smothering, promoting a very relaxed meal. Our drinks were delicious. Appetizers perfectly timed. We ordered calamari which was very tender and tasty. The entrees were absolutely delicious.
