This was a wonder experience from the perfectly made drinks (apple martini and Manhattan) to the delicious appetizer of calamari to then an even more devious Filet and Prime Rib! Perfectly seasoned and cooked. My husband and I don’t get out all the time just us and this was the perfect “date night”. Our servers were kind, competent and a joy to deal with. highly recommend!!!

We had a very enjoyable time. Our waitress, Alana, was excellent! She took our orders quickly and had us started on our meal in no time. We were able to ask her questions and make requests with her always smiling and happy to help. This despite the fact that she was serving several tables in the area at the same time. Every interaction was excellent and very professional. The food provided was the usual very good fare and we left feeling very stuffed especially since we decided to have the Molten Chocolate Cake for dessert. Even though this requires an amount of time to prepare, Alana kept us advised of how much longer before the dessert would be ready and it seemed like the time we had to wait for the dessert just flew by. We will be definitely coming back in the future and would recommend the resteraunt to our friends in the area.

Mussels were lacking any sauce, it was not salted, very plain taste, none of us liked it. Veal chop was extremely hard to chew. The floor was very oily and 1 of us almost fell because of it, she was on heels and it was super slippery. The waiter brought us the bottle of wine we ordered and ignored 1 adult who was also a birthday girl, very strange, she had to tell him about it, he didn't even ask if she wanted some wine.

The staff were wonderful. Grace was our waitress. She was informative, pleasant and smiled. The other staff were as gracious, even when giving us water or bread. They have been trained very well to give great service. Let the chef know Our meals were delicious. We had s collars and lamb chops. Cooked perfectly. We will be back soon. Thank you.

We made a reservation and when we were running 5 min late I called and the lady said it was fine. Then when we arrived the women at the front made it seem like there was an issue with seating. They seated us upstairs which was LOUD! Also the door to the patio was open and it was freezing inside, unless you were drunk which 90% of everyone was. A table next to us was so loud and obnoxious, one man drunkenly kept talking to us and then apologizing for interrupting only to do it again and again. He was a regular because all of the waitstaff was enabling his awful behavior. We literally got ritz crackers and butter when we sat down and the last time I was there the bread was incredible. I has a good experience downstairs a while ago but last night was awful and I won't ever go there again. I usually don't write reviews but this experience left me very disappointed.

It is pretty disappointing to look forward to a good dinner when the meal we have is an average low. We ordered calamari that was just ok but too sweet on the sauce side, masking other flavors. The seafood fry diabolo was terrible, and starting with the pasta was overcooked sitting on the dehydrated sauce. They use commercial tomato sauce instead of making it from scratch. I can say more, but it is not worth my time. On a 0 to 10 scale, I will give them a 5.

The restaurant is large and has an interesting diversity of seating options, something to suit whatever mood you're in: hi tops, bar, another bar, booths, outdoor roof top seating when in season. The menu is extensive, offering everything from bar foods, small plates, multiple entree favorites, excellent cocktails and wonderful desserts if you still have room. Highly recommend!
