Kenya our server was amazing. The music and the light show experience are a bit much for an establishment that wants to be 4 or 5 stars. The food was mediocre. I had the sea bass and it was over cooked. The lamb chops were sauced well but not super tender.

We had tickets for the Nutcracker and decided to make the evening nostalgic and have dinner at Birraporetti’s. We were pleasantly surprised. We hadn’t dined here in DECADES. I had the chicken piccata and my husband had the tenderloin medallions with shrimp. My chicken was so tender, flavorful and the sauce was lemony and rich. Perfect! My husband’s beef was fork tender, shrimp were excellent and the fettuccine was to die for. Our server was terrific. Polite, friendly and oh so prompt.
