Always an excellent meal. The Linguine frutta di mare is consistently good. The pecorino - bottle Ulisse winery is fabulous.

This is a go to place for us pre theatre. Always reliable for getting us fed and out in time for our show. Service is always excellent - attentive and efficient. Food is delicious. Atmosphere in the bistro section is more casual and can be a little crowded feeling but adds to the vibe. One quibble is the limited choices for vegetarians.
