Next Door by Wegmans is one of my very favorite local restaurants. The sea bass was amazing as well as the tenderloin skewers. The mango cheesecake for two was spectacular and very creative. I think what I liked best was the elimination of the oil candles which were replaced by LED lamps. I’m very sensitive to smells and it was so nice not having those there anymore. I will be back again soon!

A night out before a show. Most of us have never been to Grappa. We decided to give grappa, the drink, a try. Our amazing waiter, Ryan, gave us a great education about grappa. It wasn't what we anticipated, and we were still curious, so he offered us all a tasting. The food came quick and was plenty to share and take some home. It was a little chilly, but other than that, it was a great place for a fun dinner.
