    Craft cocktails were delicious. Our server was attentive without being invasive. The Bolognese was good but our winner dinner was Bistecca Anamarra (sp?) Lovely setting we will return

    This is fast becoming one of our favorite go to places for dinner. The food and service are first class. The chicken marsala is superb. Great wine list and a hip bar. Tucked away but worth the effort. Love it!

    What a great place with authentic Italian food that's made in-house. The staff is very friendly and genuine. This was our second time going, and everything we taste is amazing! I highly recommend the LA NONA, GNOCCHI WITH TRUFFLE SAUCE AND CHICKEN PROSECCO. Don't forget to try the prosciutto that is freshly sliced when ordered. The wife and I can't wait to go again!

    Really enjoyed our time here for a business dinner. Our server was exceptional and it showed through his excitement about the food when explaining everything. Only negative was that it did take a while for our entrees to come out following our appetizers. The food was classic Italian with a modern twist. My pasta was a little overdone but had good flavor otherwise. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their entrees. The tiramisu was super light and delicious, and others at my table enjoyed their gelato options.

    I first went here in april and food was amazing, only downside was there was a small hair in my friends dish but didn't see it till she was almost done eating. Food was amazing tho! Second time I went here food was great again but the hostess wasn't very friendly ( not sure if she was shy but when I asked for an extra menu she stood there for a while and then it took some time for her to grab one. The gelato isnt true gelato but still good. I would like to see a seasonal menu from here. I used to go to the san marino club when the restaurant was in the basement of the front building and now that was authentic! hopefully they can work some of the kinks out of here. It would be nice to finally see it be successful!
