Menu offers the opportunity to enjoy a range of well prepared and presented dishes. Particularly enjoyed the Salumi e Formaggi appetizer which was plenty to share with the four of us. Service is outstanding - friendly, informative and allowed plenty of time to enjoy each course.

They’re still working out “bugs” with Open Table as they’ve just started using it. However, the manager was extremely accommodating and even provided a complimentary tequila/pineapple shot at the end of our meal. Food was phenomenal. Staff is courteous and attentive. Prices are reasonable for quality of food. I highly recommend for a different experience and great food.
