What a delightful anniversary dinner. The calamari, etc. appetizer was delicious and very lightly fried. The barolo braised duck was outrageous and the tagliatelle was among the best pasta dishes my wife ever had. We had a tasty bottle of Super Tuscan, and the special drink and chocolate treat were a nice addition. Our server Dani was terrific.

Food was very good. Service was excellent. It’s loud in there because there isn’t much to break up the noise but that’s not a deal breaker. We were a little surprised at the portion sizes of the pasta dishes. I’m not saying they should serve an entire family but they seemed a little skimpy. The branzino was delicious. We’ll go back for sure.

Great place. Great service. I explained that I want a not sweet not dry wine and what they suggested was perfect. They understood the assignment. We got full so fast though, be prepared to bring home left overs.

Amazing experience! Started with the prosciutto, a pinot grigio, and had the tagliatelle, followed by the torta. It was all so wonderful! HIGHLY recommend the tagliatelle!! I sat at the bar, where Caesar waited on me, and he was exceptional. Highly attentive but not over-bearing; he was personable and friendly. I loved the ambiance as well. It should also be said, Caesar went above and beyond, and is an expert in his craft! Make a reservation, and you will not be disappointed.
