    Stopped here for a drink and really liked the place so decided to go back for dinner on our trip. Place is beautiful, drinks were good but the fuscilli was really disappointing. Enough to send it back which I never do. They kindly remade it for us and still wasn’t great but didn’t want to be that person. Felt the server was annoyed with us but we tried to be as nice as possible about it! The lobster parpadelle was amazing though and I would go back again for that.

    Booked an outdoor table at 8:15 p.m. Restaurant was fairly busy. Seated immediately. Waitress appeared very flustered. Informed us she was also the bartender. Couldn't seem to remember when we asked for bread, additional drinks, etc. Food was ok. Small portions. Bread was magnificent! My major complaint was the fact that we sat on the patio and the entire market square was under construction with a screened fence. I also was approached while my husband was in the restroom by a homeless person asking me for money. It was very unsettling.

    We were going to a7:30 show and informed our server. Everything was well timed. The smaller entree sizes were quite enough for us. The grilled artichokes were especially tasty. We will be back.

    Despite a minor issue with an appetizer, the food, service and ambiance were perfect. Our server, Josie, was amazing. She was attentive and helpful with food and drink suggestions. When an issue arose relative to an appetizer, a manager appeared almost immediately and handled it perfectly. Mark is a fantastic bartender - friendly and efficient. We will be back!
