Went last night for the Restaurant Week Menu (3 courses for $44). Very nice dinner. The menu was excellent - full-sized, high-quality appetizers, their best entrees (including osso bucco - a pricey dish rarely seen on a discounted menu) and a choice of 3 desserts. We were a party of 5 and tasted many things on the RW menu. All were very good. We went early, but there was a nice crowd - enough to feel social but not noisy. Will definitely go back.

Fantastic atmosphere & service. Food selection was good. I had the salmon. I liked it, but it did not wow me. Spouse had the seafood pasta. It was filled with calamari, octopus, clams, scallops, and mussels. He said the sauce was the best part. We went there just because of Restaurant week specials, because it encourages us to try new places.

Nice evening. Good food. Great mussels. The noise level was overwhelming for hearing aid wearers (background noise picked up by hearing aid).
