    Came here to catch up with a few girl friends on a Tuesday night. I did make a reservation, but I think on a weekday if you walk in without a reservation that might work too. The decor is lovely! They went above and beyond to decorate for Christmas. Great spot to take a holiday picture. Our waiter David was great! Super attentive and on top of everything. He even split a salad that we wanted to share without us asking and brought over some yummy bread sticks. This is the type of place you can laugh without feeling too loud. It is much larger inside than anticipated. The food was also good. I did not love the stuffed shells, but it was okay. I think next time that I come back I would like to try something different. They have a great variety of items on the menu. This is a great spot for a family dinner. Overall 4.5/5 stars!
