    Really wonderful food and within walking distance to the new Jacob’s Music Center. We had the bolognese and eggplant - both really excellent.

    first the hostess who greeted us at the entry was very sweet, told us our table for our reservation would take a few minutes to set up, it was a symphony night and because it is a block from the symphony building it was busy! EXCELLENT FOOD AND SERVICE!

    This is a small restaurant that is a hidden gem. Our server was Felix and he was great. Knowledgeable and personable. The food was very good and plentiful. We'll be back.

    Everyone in my group agreed that the food was amazing. The Caesar salad was a favorite, and the lasagna was by far the best that I have ever had.

    Everything was good, except for the Fetuccini Alfredo, I let the waiter know, he didn't offer any other alternatives or solutions.

    Booked two months in advance. No table ready for us inside or out. No heater for outside seating - just threw together two mismatched tables for us. Not enough place settings. Missed an appetizer - never delivered and never apologized. Did not have the wine listed on menu. Did not have wine glasses. Understaffed and not treated with any urgency or consideration for our frustration. On top of that the food was mediocre at best. Most of us didn't even eat all of our food. Sad as it used to be really good.
