The only thing I would change about our dinner. When the chocolate gateau was served it served with a side plate for each of us. Unfortunately the plates were really warm. They must have come directly from the dishwasher to the table. Since the dessert is served with gelato, a warm plate seemed out of place. This small gaffe notwithstanding, the entire experience was outstanding. Our food was full of flavor, the room was full of life, and service was spot on.

We celebrated birthdays for a couple of friends. We shared 4 appetizers. All were wonderful and the key lime pie was too! The service was excellent as well. We'll be back again soon, I'm sure.

Good food but server had a bad attitude and seemed like she was bothered being there. Not too many people there so they may be struggling. Kinda chilly inside and when we asked to turn up the heat, they said they couldn’t because of the wine?
