    The service was very good, got taken care of right away, food came out a little too fast, wanted to enjoy a drink first. The food was delicious and the staff was in point. I would recommend to my friends and would definitely go again.

    Christmas Eve mid afternoon visit. Holiday decor was lovely, understated elegance. Staff was very cordial, especially with it being a holiday. They had a beautiful special menu for the holiday, but chose to go with a standard stuffed shell pasta with an add on of one meatball. Excellent pasta and the sauce which is called a slightly sweet marinara was absolutely perfect. Staff was considerate and thoughtful in their suggestions. The garlic bread is seasoned just right. The only thing missing was a glass of Chianti, but that was on me because I was driving so chose not to indulge. Great meal, great staff (Devon), great decor. Will definitely be back.
