    Service was top notch. Our waiter Vincenzo was very attentive and knowledgeable about the entire menu. Our cocktails arrived quickly and were made to perfection. Entrees were sensational with the favorite being the veal in a mushroom sauce. After enjoying our meals we shared a magnificent and perfect in every way grand marnier soufflé. A gift from the gods. So perfect. Was great to see Bruno as he made the rounds visiting each guest. On the whole a delightful , memorable dining experience.
