    Awesome food, awesome service! Made a reservation a month in advance for 5:00, we were catching a show! Got there 45 minutes early, all empty tables. Hostess was extremely rude and shouldn't be working with the public. We asked to be seated earlier and she said we couldn't, she explained she was over booked. We sat at the bar and had some drinks. 5:00 came and went, she sat every table for 5:00 before us! Rude! Finally we spoke to another host who sat us right away, and he couldn't believe we weren't seated yet. Too many restaurants to choose from in AC to be treated like this!

    Pleasantly surprised. Our dinner, ravioli bolognese and the veal Fontana were delicious. We shared a tomato and olive salad that we both loved. Service was great. The complimentary lemoncello was a nice ending to our meal. Highly recommend.
