Today’s lunch experience was great. The food and drinks were all great and arrived promptly. We went early, so it wasn’t too crowded for a while, which made the noise level really manageable.

We were half an hour late since the traffic driving in from CT was terrible but they were really nice about it even though the restaurant was packed. We were going to to a program across the street and they rushed our dinner for us. Best brsnzino I’ve ever eaten.
