Excellent food and a nice place, marred by simply bizarrely poor service. Not lacking in attentiveness nor effort, but just shockingly poorly-trained for this level of restaurant. Our main server consistently struggled to open bottles of wine. Another server decided to directly dispense ground pepper onto an empty plate... and those are just the highlights. Just deeply strange.

Our seating area provided separation from other diners and made conversation with our group of 5 comfortable. We think the menu is great and the specials worth listening to. Two of us had the Osso Bucco special and it was excellent. Our teenagers loved the pasta dishes they chose and the desserts! Many thanks to our female server who is truly talented in both people skills and dining management!! We'll come again.

Generally good food and service. Nice ambience and convenient to theatres. Portions on dishes were on the smaller side. Temperature was too cold and patrons were forced to do jackets and sweaters. Waiter said "yes it is chilly" and did not offer to change ac, as if "we don't care." Complimented him on city but he said not what it used to be...too many immigrants and homeless... thought that was a strange response.
