My wife and I enjoyed dinner before a Playhouse Square show recently. I had the salmon, and my wife had the rigatoni, and both were excellent. The cocktails were also very good, as was their house wine (we had the Pinot Noir). The service was a little spotty but hopefully will get better as time goes on.

The food was outstanding AND the service was exceptional! Authentic Italian recipes, excellent Manhattan, and good wine choices. It's a little cozy, so a little noisy but not bad.
