Very nice, service was excellent and fast. A bit pricey but broad menu. Serving sizes could be a bit larger too but overall I'd come with friends again for sure. Nice to see the area coming back and being nice again

We had a very nice booth and spent time talking and catching up. We did not feel rushed, the server continued to check in on us. Ordered wine and the simple salad, it was delicious! The dressing was so tasty! Also ordered the Lasagna, it was rich and creamy. Such wonderful food!! I would highly recommend and dine here often.

Not very busy tonight. The food was good as usual. The server Alexis acted like she didn't want to be there. I get it it's the holidays but atleast make an attempted to be nice. Didn't check on the table once. Had to ask other servers for water, additional roll ups. I'd eat here again, with the hopes of not getting her as our server again.
