    Beautiful setting, great music. We arrived for an early dinner and staff was very welcoming and friendly. Our server was very helpful explaining the menu and the food was top notch. Wonderful combinations of flavors and the tiramisu was outstanding!!

    The fried artichokes, burrata, and pasta samplers were the stars of the meal. Avoid the tuna tartare, the texture is not what you’d expect from tartare and more like a “spread” - tasted rather fishy as well. Service was great!
