    This is not fine dining. Lack of training shows which is management’s fault. We were greeted and shown to our table. After 10-12 minutes the server greeted us asked if we wanted water, we said yes and she left. I had to ask for the wine list, as it was not provided to us upon seating. The wine list is very disorganized and confusing. Wines are listed without rhyme or reason. If it’s an Italian specialty restaurant the wines should be listed by region but, the list didn’t make sense. . Few minutes later she came back with the water. At this time we ordered appetizers and entrees. I ordered the osso bucco with a glass of the Chianti Classico. The food was delivered by a staff member. Our server didn’t check on us and I had to ask another staff to ask her to come to our table. When she showed up I asked for the my wine, just to be informed that they side have it. (She had 30-35 minutes to let me know). The lack of training and management involvement shows. In no universe this is fine dining. The osso bucco was good but not exceptional. Came with a spoonful of mashed potatoes supposedly with truffle, that someone forgot. So, this is a good everyday eatery but far from fine dining. Management needs to go, and bring real hospitality professionals to train the service staff.

    The apps were not bad but the cacio e pepe pasta and the sausage pasta were inedible. The filet was not bad and the chicken parmesan was mediocre. Will not return. Go to Roots or eat at the bar.

    Caesar salad was GREAT. My cacio e pepe was super dry. I asked them to take it back and please put more sauce on it somehow and they brought it back with a big pour of olive oil on it ugh

    We had a disappointing experience on NYE - the only option was a fixed price menu, which was fine but we felt rushed through the courses. We ordered a bottle of wine but the server must of forgotten about it because it did not get served until midway through our entree. No apology or acknowledgement.

    I want to love this restaurant but frankly the food is not great, the service is quite slow and its just never been a great choice. The employees are all incredibly kind and lovely to meet but they need to really work on their menu.
