    The staff were great but a little busy and seemed not enough staff for the night. Food was a little pricey for the taste. I ordered a pasta cheese wheel dish and barely saw any of the cheese wheel preparation . When it arrived at the table ur was not cooked al dente and was barely warm.
    Vincenzo Cucina & LoungeResponded today
    Hello, thank you for your feedback. We have shared your comments regarding the value and cheese wheel with our team.
