    We (2) attended the Easter Brunch today - second year in a row. First course good. Main course disappointing compared to past. Both entrees (chicken saltimbocca, roast salmon with tapenade) were served with large glop of mashed potatoes. No mention of this on menu. We had eaten at this restaurant a week earlier for their Umbria dinner. Again, a main entree came with mashed potatoes- not mentioned on menu. Really disappointing, especially for the price.

    We had an amazing time for our family Easter brunch! From the very start, from the beverages through all three courses through an after dinner drink… Everything was superb! It was great when Paul Bartolotta came to our table to check on us and to wish us a Happy Easter! Been going there for 30 years and we have never been let down!

    This is one of our favorite restaurants. The menu does change every 5 weeks to another region which makes it a great way to try new dishes. The food is always good and the service is wonderful!

    What a cool unique experience! The food was really good and we enjoyed the restaurant. There were so many cool options for our meal. I like the style it was served as well - getting an appetizer, a first course, second course and dessert was great!
