Something id going on with this restaurant…..almost empty two nights in a row. Good food….prices a little high for this level of Italian food. High priced beverages, too. One of our orders had to be returned for being undercooked. Will most likely not return.

Visiting for the first time, we met friends from out of town at this cafe. Food choices were varied, the interior pleasant, the linen tablecloths a nice touch compared to others. The food was plentiful, steamy hot and the wait staff initially accommodating. ••• HOWEVER... once we had finished our meal, you could tell the staff was READY to turn the tables and move us on out of the cafe. In fact, we actually wanted dessert but had to get up from the table and chase down the server for their short menu of desserts. No asking if we wanted coffee or another glass of wine. √ Once the wait staff determined it was TIME FOR US TO LEAVE..... Make no mistake about it... the water glasses were removed from the table.... which made it VERY CLEAR... it was time to leave. ••• Now... I do understand that flipping tables is important to the bottom line...but this was a casual Sunday, a late afternoon reservation and we were one of five other tables with more than ample room and empty tables inside and out.

We sat inside at a nice table by the window. Fresh bread was excellent, wine was nice. I had the Caprese salad, my husband Wedge salad, both were excellent. We shared the Lobster Ravioli.! Yum! ✨✨✨✨✨
