We arrived to find the restaurant closed. Open Table should have alerted us to this. The adjacent Chinese restaurant was closed, too. Apparently, there had been a kitchen fire in the Chinese restaurant several days earlier. There was a sign on their door indicating that it was unsafe to enter, water damage, etc. We were left to locate another place to dine on short notice and no reservation.

The risotto di mare was fabulous, best risotto I’ve had since my trip to Venice. Maybe it’s just me, but the chocolate tiramisu had an odd taste and aftertaste to it.

First time at the Restaurant. A hidden gem. Food was wonderful, service wonderful, ambience not so much. Had to listen to other customers conversations, without wanting to do that. Might just have been unlucky with noise level. We will be back!

From the Carpacio appetizer, Prosecco & Chianti wines, Lobster Ravioli, & Veal Picatta Entrees, to the Pistachio Tiramasu & Chocolate Fudgecake Desserts, made a memorable meal. All presented & attended well by Rudy & Staff.

There were 3 of us. We each had a different entree-Veal Marsala, Lamb Shank and Eggplant Parmesan. Two of us substituted pasta for the mashed potatoes. We had Caesar salads. Everything was delicious. We shared a bottle French wine that was featured. It, too, was quite good. Dessert was good, also-a Chocolate Tiramisu and a Pistachio Tiramisu. We also enjoyed the complimentary Limoncello. We’ve dined there many, many times and always enjoy the meals.

What a lovely date night - local, friendly servers, great food and attention at the right moments. Clean, crisp atmosphere. The food is consistently great from the bread to the limoncello and tiramisu… phenomenal. My date’s Chicken Marsala was hearty and flavorful. I had the boar osso buco- so tender… with creamy mashed potato. Such a fantastic locally owned gem.… the owner makes you feel welcome…. And the staff - especially the amazing Sami and Stephen are attentive.

Overall the food was very good. There were 6 of us and 5 of the 6 meals were good. I had the calamari steak prepared lightly floured. It was not good. This restaurant serves very nice entrees more often not. Maybe an off night for the calamari.
