    Very much, enjoyed the dinner. Our table had the lamb chops, the lasagna, seafood and other yummy things. The service is outstanding. And the atmosphere allows you to really talk and be heard.

    The food and service are impeccable. Great place to go for a quiet romantic dinner or with a small group of friends where you can actually hear each other speak. We were celebrating our 44th wedding anniversary and they brought us their delicious tiramisu.

    I love this restaurant. A predecessor to all the upscale eateries popping up. The service is personal. The food is excellent and the house historic house is a welcome change to the oversized restaurants that are prevalent.
