    We found the food disappointing and overpriced. While the service was nice overall it wasn’t worth it. We won’t be returning.

    Good but a little off. The meatballs and polenta were excellent. The Caesar Salad was sweet. Yes, sweet! The mushroom pasta excellent. The pork chop had too many fatty parts but the taste was good. Nice atmosphere, wonderful servers, pleasant place.

    What a great dining experience last nite. Both our apps were delicious - the burrata special and the charred octopus. The scallops were unbelievable. Perfect little crunch on the outside. The vegetables were quite tasty. The venison was exquisite. Perfect medium rare. My compliments to the chef! The Caribbean banana dessert was very good indeed. Service was excellent. Julie was pleasantly engaging and knowledgeable. Thank you for a great dining experience!

    The service is excellent Attentive but not intrusive menu selection is great. Highly recommend calamari, crispy and tender The food is not always consistent at each visit. Roasted root veggies could be cooked a little more … some are hard to the bite. Inside the ambience is good but dated and needs update/paint A good place for special occasions

    Sensational Greek salad to start and a superb roasted half chicken. Andrea gave us excellent service. The only negative was the acing of items coming out of the kitchen. Can’t wait until we visit again.
