Great value and great food not to mention an open environment to dine in and wonderful service. We had the lamb chops, Lemon Chicken and some great apps , the octopus was very good and the clams were even better . everyone loved the dip. Very good selection of beers, bourbon and wines. They also did a great job with the mixed drinks although we did question the pours on the martini's always well below the top of the glass. Definitely will be back.

My wife and I decided to go there on a Tuesday evening. We had a very nice, no rush diner. The food was also very good (Shrimp Francais and Papardelle Bolegnese). They also had fish specials and veal specials that t want to try in a future visit.
