    Quiet Thursday lunch. Service was good. My arancini was cold. Would have preferred it warm or hot. My minestrone soup was good but certainly could have had more veggies. The paninis were really nice.

    We were seated at a table right by the stairs. People continually going up and down. It was distracting and unappetizing. ( dust on the stairs falling while people traveled the staircase). At one point two employees having a discussion while standing on the stairs right by our table.
