    Not only was our meal typically excellent, but the hostess was a hoot and our server lovely and attentive. I thought I lost a glove, and the hostess got completely involved in helping me find it; it was next to my car in the parking lot and when I went back in to call off the search, the hostess and I had another rather hilarious encounter and, as I turned to leave, I heard her shout to the rest of the crew, "SHE FOUND IT!" Now, THAT's a community in a kitchen!!!

    We sat outside on a crisp evening. Patio heaters were perfect. Ambiance was magical Christmas outside where children played on the open turf on the lighted courtyard. Appetizers were on point. Drinks were fabulous. Main courses well presented and flavorful. A nice evening to celebrate our new grad!

    Wonderful service. Everyone ( 6 of adults) loved their dinner. Best Italian food I have had in a while. ( other than family meals) I had Veal Scallopini. It was tender and very flavorful. The only complaint. This entree had no sides. ordered a side of pasta and shared a salad with my husband.
