The chef is amazing. Willing to do things not on the menu, I asked for calamari with arrabiata sauce and he killed it! So good that I asked him to make one of his dishes with that sauce instead of a garlic broth!! And he did that TOO!! Not usual for a chef to change things up on a weekend night. My wife’s chicken francese was superb! There deserts are not homemade, but the tiramisu was delicious. All the dishes were presented very nicely. DEFINITELY worth returning!!

The Gorgonzola pasta was a little salty for our taste, but it was very good. We will return.
