Beautiful restaurant from the minute you open the door! We were seated immediately and the server was quickly to meet and greet us. We had the rigatoni appetizer which we split- perfect! Very filling- we both head meat choices and the steaks were to die for! Baked potatoes and vegetables were top notch. Highly recommended and will definitely be back!
