Always a great meal with fantastic service at this and all the Cecconi's locations that I have frequented worldwide. We were happy to get a table with a view and try some creative cuisine. The whipped ricotta with truffle was superb. I feel like a lot of restaurants have the same menus these days and the chef really puts his own spin on some basic items and really makes them mouth watering. Quite the enjoyable experience!

Staff was very friendly and joyful. Food and drinks were great. The music wasn't as loud as I anticipated, assuming it was because it wasn't too busy. No complaints.
