Food was outstanding. Server was terrific but timing was slow. We were there 3 hours, which was probably about 30 min more than it should have been. It was fine because it's a beautiful place and the server never made us feel forgotten- she was very attentive - I just think the kitchen was slow.

It was a great birthday celebration of my song became 22 yeas old! We had 4 appetizers: spicy squids, octopus, scallops and polenta with wild mushrooms. All were amazingly flavorful and delicious. My son had a tomahawk, while I enjoyed Mediterranean fish (I forgot what kind). That tomahawk was so huge but tender. It came with mushroom butter sauce and potatoes more condiments. We concluded this dinner with crème brûlée and flourless chocolate torte and a cup of decaf coffee. I’m so glad that my son is now old enough to appreciate these dishes wholeheartedly! And the service was impeccable, as usual. They were so attentive and everything was timed perfectly!! I really appreciated all aspects of the dinner!!
