    Amazing service on busy Valentine's Day! Our server paced our orders perfectly. Excellent cocktails. Lovely Caesar salad and shrimp scampi for starters. Our server checked on us often and bus staff were on top of clearing at just the right time. Tables are very small and crowd easily! Barely any elbow room. ( Our only nit pick) Delicious boar ragu over parpadelle and a likewise veal/ braised beef stuffed pasta were al dente and beautifully presented. Huge wine list. We split a pistachio semifreddo- we were stuffed and happy!

    Went on Valentine’s Day, so it was pretty busy, but as a result small tables were jammed together making it a little uncomfortable to sit and eat. Other than that the food was amazing, and Ken our waiter was absolutely fantastic!
