My husband was starving and wanted to decide quickly where to eat. This restaurant was ok, but was too overpriced for what it was. It was loud considering there were only three tables being waited on, one with a small child. Usually I am very patient and tolerant of children crying, but not so that night I guess. The appetizer was average. I ordered a $40 pasta entree and it came with SIX small scallops.
