    The food is always excellent which yesterday was no exception. The service was not great. Our waitress was very nice but very overwhelmed. She had too many tables. The bussers were not around to refill water. We had to ask a couple of times for more water. Our pizza was supposedly dropped so they had to remake so it took over an hour to get our pizza. The manager did buy us another round of drinks which was appreciated. Still one of our favorite places!

    Was on the rooftop to celebrate my sisters 54th birthday and it was sooo wonderful. The bartenders were so great Dario and his co bar star made sure we had a great time. They even turned up the music for us and we had a ball. This is definitely a hidden gem in the southwest suburbs.
