    First we didn't get logged into our Open Table reservation, so I don't know that I received my points. Our server, Tiffany, was excellent, considering how busy they were. The Grey Goose martinis were not prepared correctly, and it took so long to get them, we watered them down with ice in order to be able to drink them - They made them dirty. The Lobster ravioli was very good. The lasagna was not good at all. Two of us had this...we had to hunt to find even one piece of meat and there was barely any cheese. It was a flat blob of pasta sheets smothered in sauce to look like something. The tiramisu dessert and cheesecake were very nice. Any way, we had to make accommodations, and it tuned out ok, but don't ever order the lasagna, in my opinion.

    Great menu selections. Appetizer (Lamb Lollipops) was excellent. Entrees of Swordfish and Chicken Involtini were both great tasting.
