Excellent pasta with guanciale and asparagus, and the chicken breast in browned butter continues to be just about my favorite preparation of chicken. Love the choices of wine by the glass, carafe, and bottle. Service was just right

Fabulous dinner. The artichoke appetizer was excellent as was all our pastas. We were celebrating two birthdays with old friends that we hadn’t seen in decades and the staff did not rush us which was lovely. Dessert was yummy too! Our first visit, but definitely will not be our last!
