                                                              Made a reservation for 4 at 7:30 on a Thursday night. We were seated in what I would describe as an overflow area. No place settings set up or decor at any of the tables in that section. Immediate bad vibe. Our waiter disappeared after we told him we needed more time. I believe the manager ended up taking our order. He was very nice. Didn’t see our waiter again until our meal was done and we asked to see the desert menu. He disappeared again and another waitress took our order. Food itself was good. We particularly enjoyed the Spicy beef chili toast and the Bucatini spaghetti. Maybe the service and ambiance is better in the main room.

                                                              Our second visit here. First time was outstanding. This time, ambiance was great, service was more rushed and less personalized. Was told we need to put appetizer order in along with entrees or waiter would wait until we have it all ready. I don't like feeling rushed through even while I'm mindful of the need to turn tables. Food was average. The two different pasta dishes were both sweet and the chicken breast was heavily salted. Filet mignon was excellent. Cocktails were good as well as dessert. Not sure we'll go back.
