The restaurant was warm and inviting. Our server was Mickey. He was knowledgeable and attentive. Our food was promptly delivered to us. It was delicious! We split the Artichoke salad then chose the seafood special of 8 fish over spaghetti and veal parmigiana with spaghetti on the side. The dinner did no disappoint. It is difficult to get a reservation because it is such a great restaurant but I will plan ahead.

A new Year’s Day celebration. All was good, as usual, and the waitress was excellent.

This is my new favorite restaurant. Love the charming rustic decor. I feel like we’re in the Pennsylvania countryside when we’re here. The service is phenomenal, the server and the support staff are there whenever you need them. Very friendly and attentive. Now, the food. Absolutely delicious. Best rice balls ever. Honestly, I never liked rice balls until these. Crispy, cheesy delicious! All the salads are exquisitely composed. The way the greens are sliced and perfectly dressed. We had the tricolore with roasted butternut squash (finely chopped) with crispy shallots and cider vinaigrette. I’d had the halibut with lobster cream sauce and lump crab last week, which was a large fresh piece of flaky moist fish. Someone at the next table had the shrimp scampi and I already knew I had to try it this time. It was without question, not even close, the best shrimp scampi of my 50 years. The sauce was the perfect combo of wine lemon and butter. The shrimp were cooked perfectly with a crunchy breadcrumb topping. Oh, the Brussel sprouts side is also a standout. Dessert, don’t bother looking at the menu- just get the graham cracker gelato with a cappuccino, You’ll thank me later; I promise.

The food was absolutely delicious, service was great our waiter Adam was the best. He took care that every detail of our meal was satisfactory to what we needed. Also had the pleasure to meet the owner Kimmy. He sat and talked to everyone at our table. It was a perfect networking get.
