Maya did a great job and was attentive without being pushy. They are great with allergies as well. The beet and apple salad was amazing, and the Amatriciana! Tiramisu was a table favorite :)

Everything we ordered was excellent. Standouts were the bruschetta, meatballs and short rib stuffed pasta. $25 corkage is reasonable. John was excellent server. Will be back. Only minor criticism is it would be nice to have a few larger entrees (whole branzino, pork shank as examples).

Hi Robert, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re happy to hear everything you ordered was excellent and that Jon took great care of you. We also really appreciate your suggestion about larger protein entrees. We’re always looking for ways to improve, and your input is valuable to us. We hope to cook for you again soon!

It was just okay. The service was slow and the food was good, not great. Our pasta was cold and the calamari was a little soggy. The wine deal and the free bread were great though.
