   We had a 11:30am Brunch Reservation. I recently had hip replacement surgery. First, the Hostess couldn’t find our reservation in their system. Another coworker found our reservation in their system. Then, they wanted to sit us at a High Table. I stated the obvious that I can’t sit at a high table due to my recent surgery. However, I noticed two empty Booths to my left. I was told those booths are for parties of 4 people. So, the hostess went to get the manager, who took almost 10 minutes to come up the the hostess station. He offered fake apologies and said despite me walking with a strong limp and cane-no booth for parties less than 4. Then, he preceded to say we could WAIT for 40-45 minutes then he might be able to accommodate us. Like take or leave cocky mentality. He needs training on dealing with people with disabilities I’m upset, but remain composed. This could easily turned into a ADA situation. We left.

   Food was delicious and service was excellent. Very convenient when seeing a show at The Shubert Theatre.

   Great selection of creative cocktails and mocktails. Plenty of appetizers that are shareable. Entrees are generous Italian portions and a wide variety, including specials that are daily or monthly. All pasta dishes are fresh, house made and cooked perfectly. Our server, Hannah, was very attentive and personable. We visited in early May and the weather was perfect, so there was an open air feel. The only thing that detracted from the experience was the noise created by the passing motorcycles, intentionally making loud revving noise and cars blasting their music. It wasn’t constant and it won’t stop us from returning for another great meal experience.

   We had great food and an awesome waitress. It’s the traffic noise outside that was horrible!

   Food was great - could filter water and use ice - water was warm and tasted like bleach. Otherwise it was great - we will definitely recommend!

   A noisy spot. The food was good. The service was fair. Server did not check on us as soon as food came out. Would have preferred a slightly more attentive service. She was very pleasant though. Would recommend as a place for a good casual environment and meal.

    The food was delicious, the staff was very friendly and professional from the greeter at the desk to getting my parking ticket validated before we left. I highly recommend this restaurant.
