The combo was amazing! Plus the spicy gemelli is known on social media to be divine. I would pass on the carciofi alla giudia. Service team was amazing, they all seemed to work together. Nothing in particular seemed to stand out & it was noted we were celebrating a special occasion which was not mentioned by main waitress.
