Lovely large group dinner among friends. Regular prices and ambiance. Excellent food and our server was wonderful. The only thing we didn’t like was the potato dip but all the other food was tremendous and prepared perfectly. All diets can be accommodated and they still create a wonderful meal for specificities. If I lived closer, I would be a regular.

The food and drinks were excellent and the service was very good. The servers tried very hard to make sure that we were served promptly and that everyone in our party got exactly what we ordered. The restaurant was a little louder than what we are used to but that is just the character of the venue. The two little wrinkles were something we have never seen before: 1. It is assumed that all guests are using a credit card and if you pay cash, the onus is on the customer to deduct the convenience fee from the bill. 2. We did pay by cash and the bill came to almost $600. When our server came to pick up our check and payment, she stood there at the table and counted the money in front of us instead of going off to the side or in the back to do so. That was offensive. We are a group of professional women who go out together once a month and choose a different restaurant each time. We tip well. There was no reason to treat us in such a suspicious manner. As the “host” of this month’s outing, I received excellent feedback on the food and the service but felt it important to note these two dings.

Eat there several times a year. Food and service is always excellent.

Consistently great food and excellent service. The rigatoni with spicy vodka sauce is definitely a go dish.
