Wonderful traditional Thanksgiving meal with all of trimmings. Every component was flavorful and the portions were ample. We had a reservation and were seated promptly. Our waiter, Ali, was jovial, attentive, and efficient. The restaurant was very popular, so that increased the noise level, but we were still able to converse. The ample staff was very efficient at turning over tables once emptied, but in no way rushed us. Very pleasant meal, and we appreciated that all of the restaurant staff gave up their Thanksgiving to make ours better.

We went to Casa Santo Stefano to celebrate my wife’s Birthday. I had the Grouper Alimone. It tasted amazing. I thought the portion was small. She had Lobster Linguini. It was a large portion. The lobster was good but lost some of its taste from the sauce. We were able to go on the rooftop and finish off our beers and see the wonderful view. Overall good experience.
