    The seating was not good. I was hoping to be able to converse during this date night, but tables for two were packed in the traffic lanes and squeezed next to one another. People on our right were listening to our conversation; people on our left joined our conversation. Food was average. There were only about two entrees for a vegetarian.

    We went here for valentines day and the food and service was pretty poor. I'm curious if it's better on more typical evenings, but they clearly tried to jam as many people into the place for valentines day and couldn't keep up with it all. Everyone in the restaurant seemed upset or to be complaining about the food. Seems like they bit off more than they could chew on a busy night.

    We went for the first time for Valentine's so our experience may be different from regular nights. They were overbooked and understaffed so the service was far below our expectations. We will try them a 2nd time.

    We came for their Valentine's Day menu. The food was exceptional, but they were out of GF bread which the server said they usually have. The main dining room was bright, loud and crowded, but we were put in the back room, which was a little smaller, more dimly lit and less crowded. The tables were plain (no tablecloths and no candle) and some of the tables were wrought iron outdoor furniture, I suspect brought in to accommodate the crowd. Our server seemed overwhelmed/scattered/inattentive. It took forever to get our drinks, I was out of water for at least 30 minutes and he never came back to refill my hubby's coffee which would have been greatly appreciated during dessert. Because the food was so good, I could forgive the service. I will give them another chance when it is not such a busy night.

    Valentines Day. Decent meal except for poor cut of steak (NY Strip) and too much butter on vegetables. Desserts very good, $38 bottle of wine not the best but adequate. We enjoyed ourselves but far too many tables tightly squeezed together for a special occasion evening. Service was very good although slightly rushed at times. Would have been better experience if patrons were not so tightly situated (my seat back was nearly touching the table next to me). Not disappointing but not remarkable. We may give it another try and focus on some traditional pasta dishes.

    Although I did mark down a little on ambience (a refurbished Chinese restaurant), it was perfectly fine and representative of the best that this area seems to offer. And the price took a hit due to this being a pre fixe menu on Valentines Day, pricer than usually but again, similar to other offerings in this area. But they had plenty of staff on a very busy holiday, service was excellent, and the food was very fresh, well made, and delicious. Highly recommend.
