The octopus appetizer was superb…the risotto very good and all of the pasta dishes were exceptional, the cocktails, however, were all subpar. Their wine list was excellent—I would suggest to you to skip the awful cocktails here and just go straight to the wine!

A first class, upscale restaurant with good food and prices to match. Nice but expensive wine list. Very busy, so noisy. A few large tables maybe affected service slightly.

The food and service are excellent. We both had pasta options this visit along with an excellent potato and lentil soup for me and a beet salad for him. Their pastas are freshly made and delicious. Our waiter was perfect… attentive without rushing us. I highly recommend this restaurant.
