The beet salad and fried Brussels sprouts were great. The lasagna was gross - watery, flavorless sauce, weird texture of meat, no ricotta.

Excellent experience, just some minor issues such as the waiter not taking the menus once we ordered and not putting our wine in a cooler. Other than this, everything was great.

Pleasant and attentive waitress/staff. Appetizers were delicious especially the brussel sprouts. The only thing was my entree (scallops) were not warm when it arrived to the table. There was mention of a wedding party so perhaps that affected the kitchen and their timing to get entrees out.
