    Terrible service. They served salad and main course at the same time and when we complained about it nobody apologized or did anything about it. The server couldn’t have cared less and hardly acknowledged us. A dessert was never served. We waited a week for a reservation and were disappointed to say the least. High prices for mediocre food.

    Had Carl Anthony calamari, Pappardelle Rustica, Wood Fired Salmon, Panettone Bread Pudding and Cappuccino. Everything was delicious which is unusual. Ambience was very nice and not excessively noisy. Service was friendly and efficient. We’ll be back.

    Our 3rd time there. This time we were with friends and celebrated one of their birthdays. Trying new dishes, the balsamic calamari was fantastic as was the Marco Polo pizza and our friends loved their steak and short rib dinners! Amazing that though it is packed, we can still hear each other when we’re speaking and enjoy the music and ambience. Loved it!!
