Terrance was a very attentive excellent server. The chopped salad was delicious with the homemade bread. Got orecchiette which has such a great blend of chicken, garlic, squash and pasta. Our other entree was Cioppino filled with scallops, swordfish, shrimp, mussels & calamari-- Unbelievable!! Portions are perfect. Especially love the option to have half orders on pasta. A true asset to Downtown- highly recommend.

Great experience, great food, great atmosphere! We celebrated our 21st wedding anniversary and followed up the meal with a show downtown. The arugula and cheese appetizer was a great contrast of flavors and temperatures, the salad and pasta courses were delicious, and our sea bass and shrimp special was succulent and flavorful. The staff was very friendly and helped us make it to the show on time and the anniversary dessert was tasty!

One of the tastiest Beet Salads I've ever had, an excellent drink special, totally welcoming wait staff. This was a real find, since we wouldn't have known it was there by just walking past.
