We finally made it here after years of walking by the door! The restaurant is much larger than it looks from the outside. Beautiful decor, great service, live music, and fantastic menu. We got lucky and were seated in the back room with a view!

The food and service is great. My husband and I shared the chicken parmigiana and pasta with spicy vodka tomato sauce, really great. This is the second time I’ve had the chicken parmigiana, definitely a share dish. Also had a happy hour transfusion (vodka, grape juice, ginger) so yummy!
