    Everything was wonderful. A delightful meal as always. My GF missed having the burrata ravioli with fresh roasted grape tomato sauce. That was her favorite! She'd love to see it brought back to the menu at least seasonally. The vino, carpaccio and capellacio were perfect as well as the bread and, like always, the service. Thanks y'all, see you next time.

    We started with expresso martinis (with real expresso in them) as bartenders we both know you don’t always get real expresso in them and we added Baileys to them I then got a limoncello martini my boyfriend tried it said it was delicious he then got one too we started with the antipasto which had great flavor 4 different meats and 3 cheeses one neither of us was going to eat (Gorgonzola/blue cheese) they don’t specify the selection or I would have subbed it for more provolone or Parmesan they listed it on the menu for 2 people considering that the portion was very small both myself and my boyfriend got the filet dinner mine was cooked perfectly, very lean, seasoned well and delicious his however was not evenly cooked, undercooked, and fatty he only ate about half of it we could’ve sent it back but as bartenders we tend not to he thought it was overpriced for the filet however we are in a resort restaurant and everything on vacation is usually pricy in hindsight I’d eat there again but probably would order a different appetizer and try a different entree the service was impeccable and it was romantic, quiet and perfect for date night if you’re looking for a quiet dinner break from listening to kids all day in the theme parks

    Beautiful atmosphere and lovely menu. Sadly, Our waiter was awful. No personality and only checked on us at the end of our meal. Soup came out room temperature and when he came to the table to clear app plates didn't ask how anything was just cleared and moved on. The steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned just right. Our gnocchi was on the "tough" side. Not aldente just tough. They top this dish with mozzarella that was half melted. We both ate and enjoyed the NY strip but we're hoping for a better experience in such a beautiful resort.
