The food was delicious. We had the 1/2 chicken, the Mafaldine pasta and the braised leeks. The restaurant had a nice vibe. It is loud but you can still have a conversation. I found both our waitress and the sommelier helpful, professional. I received a text from the restaurant to let me know that our reserved table might not be ready on time, so I was able to arrive a bit late and not have to stand around waiting for the table to turn over. I will definitely be back.
