    Unusual wait, even though we had a reservation, on a very busy Saturday night. Phenomenal pasta dishes do not disappoint and the host and servers are welcoming and knowledgeable.

    We love it and make it a MUST every time we are in the city! We enjoy sitting at the bar and the hustle and bustle of the restaurant is just perfect! We always get the carpaccio and then switch up our pasta and protein selection’s. The servers, host and bartenders are gracious and fun! ❤️❤️
