    Food is excellent. Grilled octopus and lamb meatballs so juicy and tender. Our table ordered lamb chops, Bronzino, stewed lamb and rib eye, so delicious. My favorite was the rib eye grilled to perfection. We ate too much, but it didn’t stop us from getting Affogato for dessert. The wait staff was excellent and attentive. Our food came promptly. We sat inside which was spacious and nice, however there was a really loud group that came and the noise seemed to echo inside. It got really noisy with just that group.

    We had a lovely lunch. We both had kabobs. The lamb and steak were perfectly cooked, and the meal was delicious and generous. Would have liked a grape leaf in the Greek salad but otherwise, all good. We also had 1 desert was decadent and yummy. A lovely way to spend a Saturday. We made a reservation, but it was not necessary at this time and the restaurant was quieter and calmer than usual, which was just what we were looking for.
