    I celebrated my anniversary here, and it was fantastic. They surprised us with a sweet anniversary card, and our waiter was attentive, funny, and gave great recommendations. The food was incredible. We got focaccia and burrata to start, ribeye and filet mignon for mains, with phenomenal Brussels sprouts. The house-made caramel gelato was the perfect ending!

    Always great food and service. We were seated near the garage door so it was cold and breezy (30 degrees outside). But, still overall a great experience.

    The food was great and the drink offerings were delightful!! Tableside making of cacio e pepe in a cheese wheel is a fun experience. Went for my birthday with my hubby and we had 4 courses with accompanying drinks and our bill was around $200; which I found very reasonable for the amount and quality of food and drinks. We will recommend this place to friends!!

    We had lunch reservations for our 47th anniversary. We were immediately seated on arrival, and promptly greeted by our server Mark. He was happy to be part of our celebration, and shared his favorite recommendations on the menu. So many choices! We had spaghetti with Sunday Sauce, butternut squash ravioli, veal cutlets, salad wedge, freshly baked bread, and of course, wine. Everything was delicious. Thanks for making our anniversary a special day! We will definitely be back. T & C Lane
