We had a great dinner for 6 people. The food was great, and at a really good value. Our waitress, Meadow, was especially excellent - explained everything well, made good recommendations, and was extra considerate of the nut allergies we had at the table. Will definitely be coming back!

Travelled to Italy this past summer. My meal today was the equal of anything we had overseas. Service was excellent as well. Somewhat tight quarters for the meal and parking might be an issue. Definitely plan to return.
