Always an exceptional experience. The food is wonderful (& the pasta is homemade). You’ll not meet a friendlier staff - and the wine selections are simply divine.

Always feel welcomed and graciously greeted. Decided to have salmon and veggies rather than the more usual Very fine Italian food. Stick with the good stuff as the fish was okay, could have been fresher, and the veggies too oily, not with olive oil. A bit if an off meal fir a very good spot.
