    The staff’s commitment to attention to detail and the rhythm of service (plates being cleared in a timely manner for the arrival of new plates, being provided fresh plates and silverware, etc) was absolutely perfect. We placed a full order at the beginning of the evening and each course came out at the perfect pace. We ordered the gem lettuces, arancini, rigatoni, Tiradito, New York strip steak, and cream brûlée to finish. Each plate was stunning with perfectly executed flavors and temperatures. The ambiance upstairs was intimate and quiet. The staff is committed to hospitality and it is evident in every detail of the dining experience. Highly recommend dining here. 10/10
