I cannot overemphasize how excellent the wine dinner experience was for me and my family. We were 5 seated at our table. There were about 6 tables of similar size. The 5 course meal was outstanding. The wine pairings were memorable. It was especially exciting to have the winemaker present to explain the wines. I highly recommend others to take advantage of any similar arrangements. My family has dined at this restaurant multiple times, without benefit of the wine dinner. It has never disappointed us. We always prefer to dine on the enclosed terrace. The food is always excellent.

Went for dinner. Food was amazing. The two guys that served us, Stefano and Dario, were friends by the time we left. That focaccia with the stracciatella and prosciutto was amazing. The entire dinner was a hit. And the care and attention were unsurpassed. Certainly worth the trip from Boca Raton. We’ll be back soon.
