    It was my first time dining here and I enjoyed the food. The only issue was my boss’ lunch came out 10-15 minutes after the rest of our party’s meal. It was a bit awkward for a business lunch.

    Wait staff was not very helpful, checked on us once… $275 meal for two, I expected to not have to get up and ask for silverware. My previous experience was good, but will think twice before going back.

    We ordered calamari, Pizza Margarita, spaghetti and meatballs, and lasagne to share among our party of 4. Lasagne and meatballs were amazing. Pizza was ok. Very greasy. Calamari was very bland. The spaghetti had no taste. Our waiter lost interest in us when we didn’t order enough food. We waited 40 Minutes for our food, while the table around us (who arrived after us) ate, paid, and left. The men’s room in the parking garage was not acceptable, as a homeless person was squatting inside.
