This restaurant is a winner. Oscar, our waiter, made this a terrific experience. The food was top class from the butternut squash ravioli appetizer to the short rib Main course.

There were four of us. Our server, Luis, was outstanding. He was knowledgable, attentive and funny. His actions alone made the evening enjoyable. The food, we each picked from the prix fixe menu, was excellent. I highly recommend the General Tso’s Cauliflower starter, just perfect. We certainly will be back.
