    We had an excellent evening dining here. We had been here for dinner only once before when the restaurant first opened during their first week several years ago. The experience then was good, but they were just getting started. Now, the place is full of people, a great menu and wonderful food and service. While our drinks at the bar were fairly priced, but average in their quality, the food we ordered was outstanding. I enjoyed the Mushroom Farfalle, while my husband enjoyed the Chicken Piccata which was fabulous. The house bread served was moist and flavorful, and the desserts were great as well. We enjoyed the Zeppole and the Pistachio Gelato to finish the evening. Our servers were attentive and friendly. We will definitely return soon!

    We had cocktails at the bar before going into the main dining area. The cocktails were perfect with two great and personable bartenders. Waiter was also wonderful. I had the prime rib. Best I have ever had in 4 decades. Wife had the rigatoni Bolognaise which has been perfection each and every time. Great owner and thus a great staff.
