Had the veal chop. It was excellent. I've been looking looking for something that could compare to Zefirelli's in Herndon, VA. This could be it. We also had the halibut which was also very good. Better than the old NLI.

Server was great. But I noted this was a birthday and there was no recognition of this. Host/Desk staff were openly discussing how much a patron spent the last time they were in to dine.Disappointing to make this res weeks in advance and no one acknowledged birthday. When I called to change number of people in party, I also mentioned that it was a birthday. I expect more.
