Food was so so. Bacon wrapped shrimp was overcooked and only 4 pieces of shrimp which were very small. Vodka parm chicken was very nice. Overall ok but food quality is hit or miss.

Disappointed with the ambiance being different from the one described in their website. It was quiet due to the minimal patronage at that time.
