    The restaurant has been highly recommended by friends and this was our first visit. We caught a very quiet evening and the attention we received was wonderful. My husband said it was the best calamari he had since he moved out of Rhode Island! Everyone enjoyed their meals very much and they were very receptive to our special requests.

    Service was slow at best. Waiting to order, no visits to table was once after order. Poor service was such we asked for check as food presented and took it as carry out. Few people there and no apology . We had soup and salad, quality of which was poor. Food, tasteless when we tried. (Soup/even dry salad! Oh, we did pay for our meal, even tipped . Not likely to ever return.

    Very slow service. Understaffed perhaps due to Hurricane Helene. Will not go back.

    We have been going to this restaurant practically since Chef Michael opened his doors, 26 years ago. He is meticulous about his home away from home. Food is always consistent and tasty, restaurant clean and the waitstaff is friendly and helpful. What more can you ask.

    Waiter was very professional and not over bearing or hovering. Ever need or request was met without question. Food was very very good. My steak was exactly as I like it. Husbands veal was very tender and moist.
