    Made anniversary dinner reservations weeks in advance. We were promptly seated despite arriving 20 minutes early. Very extensive beverage list including some delicious Italian beers. The roasted beets and octopus salad starters were delicious. Our entrees, the candele Genovese and the Lobster pasta with substituted homemade GF fettuccine were both excellent. Service was quick and attentive despite the considerable Sunday evening dinner crowd. A Torta Caprese, espresso, and an unexpected on the house shot of Lemoncello for each of us for our special occasion was a wonderful way to end a very memorable dinner. We cannot wait to go back!

    We were there on a Saturday morning reservation for 4 at 11:15am. However it’s a more of a walk in first come first serve basis. We still waited for about an hour to get seated. However, the food and atmosphere was all great! So the wait was worth. Portions were large. Taste was great. Offers healthy choices and organic eggs. We ate comfortably.
