   Great place, Quiet, Romantic, Not super formal. Excellent food, courtesy but too quiet of wait staff and breezy cold if seated near kitchen door. Recommend it. Would go back.

   The restaurant is nice. Large, but cozy and well decorated. It’s really the value I struggled with. A field greens salad with two beets, a drizzle of balsamic and some shaved parm was $15. The beef short rib over (7 total) ravioli was $48. If these were flawlessly executed, they would be worth it, but in the iteration of the dishes I received, the value wasn’t there. It seems reasonable to expect more when a premium price is demanded.

   We both enjoyed the INALATA AMARONA Salad: Greens were fresh. Very generous portion. Dish #1: PASTA LOBSTER SAFFRON. The lobster doneness was prepared well however it was still attached to the shell! This makes for a messy experience. A wet finger towel should accompany this dish & any dish that requires the guest to remove the shells. The flavor of saffron overpowered the flavor of the lobster. Dish #2: PAPPARDELLE al KOBE BOLOGNESE. Excellent flavor! Generous sauce to pasta ratio. Very meaty. Would order again. CANNOLI di CASA: Serving is 3 cannoli's. This is a pre-prepped refrigerated dessert. The cannoli itself was very hard. The filling was smooth in texture and very mild in flavor.

   Marie, thank you for taking time to review; the detail helps other diners and us! The Insalata Amarone is our favorite salad and your suggestion on the wet nap for the Pasta Lobster Saffron is great (how did we miss this??)! Join us again soon and hopefully we'll have some by then. Cheers!

   While we were seated 20 minutes after our reservation time, we were made comfortable at the bar and were checked in on regularly. Nice seated, our server was attentive, personable, and gracious. We were comped a portion of our meal, given our wait, which was an unexpected bonus. The food was excellent. I had the Clam and Mussel Linguine Piccata and enjoyed every bite. My husband enjoyed his Kobe beef pasta and we both enjoyed the romantic date night atmosphere. Definitely recommend.

    We ordered the green bean appetizer and it was light but very tasty. For the main course I ordered a pesto based shrimp pasta and it was delicious. They are always on point with their pasta dishes.
