    Great job with Valentine's Day! My wife and I really enjoyed our time. The limited menu had great choices and our dinners were delicious. The staff were amazing and friendly. There was a slight mixup on our order but they made it right immediately and even gave us a discount. So we had to enjoy our time for a bit longer...no worries, it was Valentine's Day and we were in no hurry.

    Valentine’s night and we thought it might be so crowded that service wouldn’t be as good. It was extremely busy, there wasn’t an empty table but they had so much help serving and clearing it appeared to us that everything ran very smoothly. Food was perfect and made our celebration memorable, not to mention all the fun valentine decorations!

    We went for HH at 4:45. Wine was fabulous but pricey. I had the HH meatball and it was delicious! My husband and 2 friends each had the sausage and mushroom flatbread which I tasted and it was also delicious!! Noise level was just right. Service was perfect. We said we wanted to drink our wine before we ordered food and our waiter gave us time while also being attentive. Recommend the restaurant highly.
