Everything was outstanding! Our waiter was so helpful and so accommodating! The meatballs were delicious! We wanted to try several things so our server, Jay, suggested ordering a few things to be able to taste it all! Best idea EVER! Everything we ordered, from the drinks, appetizers, main course to desserts was fantastic! Worth every penny!
