We found the veal to be chewy. Not tender like I have had at other restaurants. The flash fried spinach was excellent.

Celebrated birthday dinner last week. What a fantastic find. Old school Italian restaurant that has been there over 50 years. Started in the bar for happy hour and enjoyed a glass of wine and listened to the live music. For dinner we sat at a quiet corner table in the dimly lit dining room. Dinner was heated at the table and served table side. The sea bass was delicious. Mare Monte seafood pasta as a side dish . Hubby had the pork chop special and said it was delicious. Homemade cannoli for dessert was best I ever head. Heading beck later this week for lunch
