This restaurant was nice, it's in a good location despite the construction. The staff was friendly and the menu was cool. The wine was cold and refreshing we selected a house Moscato. I would visit this restaurant again!

Good ambiance; the two entrees we ordered (scallops and bolognese) were very rich for our liking; caesar salad was very good; there is no kids menu, so not a great option unless you’re okay spending $20+ on meals for kids under 10. Lastly, our server never checked on us after we got our food, which capped off a mediocre dining experience.

Our food was really good. Some of the sides arrived as appetizers instead of sides with dinner which was disappointing. Our server did a good job but she had too many tables all at the same point which made service less than stellar.

Angie was a great server! Very attentive and made great recommendations. The DJ provided a nice vibe during brunch to top it off. I’ll definitely be back.
