    Excellent!!! The only glitch is our veal chop came out raw, so we had to wait a bit. They were busy the service was a little slow.

    Dinner was amazing. The Caesar salad was truly the best I have ever had. I ordered shrimp with linguini which was delicious. The pasta was not overcooked but perfectly cooked. Our waitress was excellent. Chef Antonio was very gracious . This establishment is a real winner.
