    We were seated in the front window of the restaurant that had virtually had no light. Ambiance is one thing, but this was beyond that. We had to Ask for more light. The server was terrific and brought us a small light. Also, we asked for some of the food in a doggy bag and half of the food was left out This is the first time anything like that has happened, though. It is one of our favorite restaurants in the Bay Area. We will return again.

    On Christmas Eve, my husband and I enjoyed our dinner at the restaurant. Fortunately, we were able to secure a 5:30 p.m. reservation. Our server, Dante, was exceptionally courteous, attentive, and efficient. Despite the restaurant’s busy atmosphere, Dante ensured that our meal arrived promptly. The cuisine was of exceptional quality.
