Our wait was great. The seared tuna done perfectly, and we really enjoyed the lightly fried calamari with aioli instead of marinara. Only problem - the tables are sticky, like they need refinishing. Overall a great experience. Friendly place.

I had called during the week to make sure they were going to have the flights of pasta . But when we got there last night they said that the flights weren’t available. Which was a disappointment . They should know that in advance.

Good was the food and vibe is cool. It is tight spacing of tables and if a band Is playing it’s for sure loud. We sat next to a divider wall and their tree decorations sort of fall over the sides and onto the table making space tighter. Service was slow and waiter inattentive. But, food quality very good
