Was excited to have dinner here because of our long history with Lamberti family restaurants for many years. Although the bread basket was not the same as I remembered (just Italian bread this time), the food was delicious and service was on point. Beautifully decorated to look like the Almalfi coast with separated rooms that made it nice for conversation. The octopus app, chicken Parm and branzino were super flavorful and beautifully presented. Street parking was a challenge, esp on a Saturday night, but the Ritz lot on 2nd was convenient.

Wonderful reunion dinner with friends. The dining room and the whole restaurant is a treat on the eyes. The bartender made us 2 Manhattans that were distinctly different yet quite refreshing. Nick was our wonder man server, he kept glasses filled and dishes magically appearing all the while guiding us with menu choices. It was a great night and for some of our party, the first time for dinner. Thanks to all for a dreamy night, great food and excellent service from everyone. A great kickoff to our holiday season.
