Guests rave about the "delicious octopus appetizer" and "excellent food and service." While some dishes like the veal and calamari had mixed reviews, the "phenomenal" pasta and attentive staff make it a place worth visiting.

It was good, but not anywhere near how excellent last nights dinner was. The service, from the minute we entered the restaurant, was excellent. From the greeter, to the server, the people were very attentive. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We will definitely be coming back.

We were only two and wanted to eat inside for the air conditioning. Except the only two tables are high tops in the bar area where servers are running by every 15 seconds. 2. They have a full bar but will still allow you to bring your own wine but the corking fee is $30 in season. We were told they reduced it to$8 but that is not in the summer months. So if you don’t like being ripped off don’t go during the summer.

                                                                                                                Is this helpful?

Seafood dish was excellent with the pasta and sauce just right. Veal was done correctly and wife’s broccoli table was to die for. Service was weak. Example left overs were boxed with used empty seafood shells. Had to ask for water refills.

Had to flag down the waitress for drink refills. Several staff members at the table entirely too often. Taking dishes when not finished. It was also very loud. Hard to enjoy the company at your own table. Seemed disorganized amongst the staff.
