    Ate here when they first opened and it was exceptional! Last night, the service was mediocre, the noise level was high and the food was not as good. The first visit we sat next to a table with two food critics so I am assuming we got superior service due to that fact. I ordered the Italian salad on both occasions and felt the dressing had changed. Two of us ordered the Shrimp Fra Diavolo. While the shrimp was excellent, the linguini had very little sauce so it was dry. Another ordered the Chicken Parmesan and that was wonderful. I can recommend the short rib lasagna. That is to die for! The noise level was high so we had trouble communicating. Beautiful decor.

    Food was delicious. Service initially a little slow. Noise level was high including a terrific piano player. Liked it well enough to go back again soon!

    My chicken scallopini was very tough. Hard to cut through. The service was terrible because our waiter was forced to be the bartender, so we had no one to wait on us. I have been there for dinner and it was excellent, so this lunch was really disappointing!
