The service was amazing, and the food was excellent! I recommend trying their Lemonciello and Orangeciello drinks. They brew both onsite and are very smooth. We can't wait to go back and take family and friends with us.

Each dish was a delightful homage to the holiday, featuring classic flavors beautifully presented. One standout moment was watching the bartender craft a drink with smoky ice, adding a touch of drama and sophistication to the evening. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect setting to enjoy a memorable meal with loved ones. Highly recommend!
