    Decided to try the restaurant after visiting the bar many times. We were pleasantly surprised by how good the restaurant was from every aspect including the food. It’s the closest we have come to experiencing good Italian food outside of Italy and there’s no need to go to NYC. Will come back for sure and glad to have found this gem.

    The Christmas buffet was a bit disappointing. The overall buffet food was good, but the carving station items of prime rib and turkey were extremely disappointing in comparison to the normal quality of these items on a regular day. The prime rib was served cold and the turkey was dry and overcooked. The normal high quality was definitely not there. Not even the B Team.
