    The drinks were beautiful and done well. The handmade pasta ravioli with lobster, ricotta and lemon was phenomenal as well as the salmon. Enjoyed sharing the mixed berry shortcake with vanilla bean ice cream ( not too sweet ); delightful. The servers were personable, knowledgeable, attentive without being disruptive. Enjoyed our window seat to car and people watch while we dined. We’ll be back :-)
