    Lovely restaurant with delicious offerings. Four of us dined, Risotto with seafood was excellent as well as the other 3 dinners, Chicken Marsala, Bolegnase, and Veal Piccata. The Risotto had clams, lobster, shrimp and scallops in it. They were well presented, and really hot. The service was excellent. Would definitely go back.

    Had the Salmon Martina. It was excellent with goat cheese, roasted peppers, and generous portion of artichoke hearts. Wife had Chicken Scaloppini and she said the chicken was very moist and a lot of artichokes. Garlic rolls were amazing. Definitely recommend.
