We expect a little noisiness and a little "chaos" on Christmas Eve, so we didn't see anything that we frowned on. We got our bread after receiving our appetizers which is a bit unusual, and my wife thought her lasagna was, perhaps, the last of what was left, being a bit dry and parts being a bit burnt. The rest of the food was topnotch, especially the old school meatballs, gniocchi, and the napolean. Everyone was friendly and worked hard to serve us. We'd definitely go back on a non-holiday to get everything on a calmer day.
