    Food off the menu was excellent and filling! Prime rib special was tasty but small. It may be common but paying extra for a salad as a second side irritates us. Though the side salad IS large and very good! So it is worth $6, just wish even a smaller version came with the meal instead. I didn’t notice if it was listed in the menu or posted somewhere but there’s an admin fee for all orders (2.88%) but no additional fee for credit card.

    Good food and nice atmosphere. For a party of 4, 2 of our meals came out more than 10 minutes before the other two which seemed very strange and awkward. When we finally asked to check on the other two, the waitress sounded like that was normal because it's just not possible to know how long the flatbreads might take. Really strange.

    Seated pretty quickly; service was a little slow; menu had nice variety; calamari appetizer was skimpy, but delicious; entrees were spaghetti and meatball (1), lamb chops, and a salad - all tasty; desserts were Nutella crepe and a bread pudding - both delicious!
