    Food is always great. Calamari, caprese, mussels and so much more. Came here for a late birthday celebration and gave us a tiramisu cake which I love so much. A little bit sweet but it's so good. Mat served us and he was very attentive. The place was honestly quiet even if there were many people (except for people ordering in loud voices) but overall I think it was exceptional.

    Overall, we felt like welcomed and appreciated patrons, and we will most certainly be back. Food was great, most had hanger steak. Drinks were excellent. The table size was perfect for our group. Its location at the door made for a noisier, colder and less private dinner, and the use of stools for two of our party was less comfortable for them. Our server, Jenna was great, and she made up for the inconvenience with her enjoyable personality, complimentary bruschetta, and flexibility on appetizer portions.
