    Next level attention to detail regarding service. Good mix of seafood, meat and vegetarian options on the menu. We had the meat and fish specials, but can confirm the tiramisu and limoncello sponge desserts were heavenly.

    this was hands down the best gnocchi i have ever had in my entire life. soft, delicious, delicate, not chewy, and the sauce was heavenly. the mussels were super fresh, the spring mix salad will forever be my favorite, and the eggplant was so thin and perfectly crunchy. amazing 10/10 meal as always!!

    Wonderful from start to finish. New filet crostini and tuna crudo were outstanding. The tuna was explosive with hot chilies. The filet was so tender and marinated. Main was saffron fettuccine with mussels and excellent sauce. Chocolate gelato and espresso to close it out. Everything was A+.
