    Service was excellent. My husband ordered the pizza, and was disappointed as it didn't have that wood fired taste that Paese pizza's have been known for. Everyone else's meal was good. There was someone behind the bar that was making akward noises and doing so persistently and very loudly. Unfortunately, it kept disrupting our conversation's. Overall, the service was excellent, as was our server. Hopefully they'll bring back their oh-so-delicious wood fired pizza!!

    This is the first time my husband and I did an 8 course tasting. With incredibly knowledgable staff, mind blowing and complex food, this was a night to remember. When a taste can bring you back to your childhood (much like what happened in Ratatouille), it’s nothing I had ever experienced anywhere else. Even as a non vegetarian, I did not miss the absence of meat. A must “go-to”.
