   This place is family friendly. No kid menu but my kid likes the food. Service is a bit slow.

   Excellent service (Erica is awesome!), amazing food, and great drinks! Everything is wonderful but I highly recommend the whipped eggplant, the meatballs are the most tasty and tender I’ve ever had, and I love the light, crispy, tasty bronzino. And let’s not forget the view!!

   We had a great time, food is phenomenal. It was drizzling in the patio and right away we got moved one table over with a great view inside. Will definitely return and recommend

   My table was given away and the staff downstairs told us to go wait upstairs for a table and they would “get us seated as soon as possible” but the team upstairs said after we waited for 70 minutes that they had no idea why the downstairs team even said that they would be able seat us and they couldn’t guarantee a table at all. We wasted our whole night due to poor communication.

   the view and the food, service were all good but it was too noisy to have conversation. You can not hear the one right in front of you.

    The food is amazing. As a picky eater I thought I wouldn’t like the whipped eggplant but it was amazing best part of the meal. The vodka pasta was also delicious not too spicy which I liked. Rose and mule were also delicious. I would bring a jacket no matter what the weather as it was very windy.
