    Right from the start our waiter Richard, our waiter was friendly, knowledgable, and fun! Appetizer melted mozzarella with Calabrian peppers was outstanding. We licked the bowl clean. Our party loved the 4 different mains. Portion size more than enough. Sadly, no room for dessert. We most certainly will be back.

    Such a great place.. from the staff to the ambience of the place is absolutely fabulous! My daughter and I enjoyed the food from start to finish and there was plenty to enjoy. I love the music in the background and the idea of a dinner club. Its something different that we don't have in this town and love to see how it changes every week. George and Dominic are always so welcoming and makes us feel comfortable. Wishing you both much success and keep adding more dates .. it's awesome!
