    My wife and I enjoyed a great meal here last night prior to the theater. The staff from arrival to the bill were spot on. Friendly and well paced service, delicious food and a nice atmosphere. It all went to well it was hard to think how nice an evening it was. No wonder they have been serving patrons for so many year! Would highly recommend.

    Caesar salad wasn’t authentic. For $23 would expect bacon and a bit more dressing. Salad leaves were barely coated. Spicy shrimp linguine wasn’t spicy, although did get good amount of shrimp. Bread came after my husband had almost finished his soup. Okay restaurant but not value for money.

    We had an amazing experience for my friend’s birthday. Service was extraordinary, staff are super friendly, they went above and beyond with the attention to detail. The food blew my mind, I order the spicy shrimp linguini and my partner the seafood pasta, so delicious!! You must try the grilled squid and shrimp, we had it as started dish and it was so fresh and juicy. We will definitely be coming back. My friends had pizza, risotto and the portobello dish and they spoke very highly about them. Prices are fare and atmosphere is very chill and romantic. You also must take a moment to speak with the restaurant’s manager, he is the kind of personality you immediately want to be friend with. I wish I could give this restaurant more than 5 stars, go and try it for yourself your won’t be disappointed.

    Wait staff was very efficient and attentive. Wine and appetizers were great. No sure what happened with the main course but my fish dish and vegetables came out on the cool side. The veal in my wife's pasta dish was dry and her dish was also not very hot. We were on a bit of a time crunch for the theater so did not say anything. They were very busy so perhaps we got lost in the shuffle.

    I took the wifey there for her birthday 2023. It was the second time we’ve been there, and they are still the best! Going on a Monday evening was actually the best move since there were only two more couples in the restaurant (one with their dogo). So it was quiet, intimate. We had full attention of the server, who was also the best! We loved it and will come back!

    The food is delicious but you are going to pay top dollar for it. For example, the Caprese Salad which is comprised of 4 tomato slices and 4 small pieces of cheese is $24.00.

    The young lady that was our server was simply outstanding! She's engaging, warm and simply superb at her job. Always smiling. We just had such a wonderful experience and a lot of that was because of her. It's always the staff that can make or break a customer's experience and we were just thrilled that she was our server that night. I wish I could remember her name. My apologies. Again we had a wonderful time there!!
