We ordered the 5 course dinner menu and everything was flawless, the agnelotti and the potato side dish to the steak being the highlight for us. We had the desserts changed (for a small fee) and did not regret (neither me nor my wife are super fans of apple desserts). The only asterisk for us is that the wine pairing did not include a glass to pair with the agnelotti, which left us wondering if we should have added the two pairings or if we should have just ordered a bottle. Other than that, again, everything was amazing and I would definitely return for a giant agnelotti plate
