    We eat there regularly. I called to discuss a few things the person who answered was rude to me then the Chef returned my call and told me he was the owner and then the waiter later revealed it was the Chef. He was very rude to me as well. I have a very serious allergy I wanted to remind them of. We eat here and LaCollina owned by the same owner. I have held parties & business meetings. There was no need to be rude to me. The dessert was dry and really awful.

    Restaurant has lovely interior with great lighting. The menu is large and everything we had was delicious. The homemade coconut sorbet was amazing. The service was exceptional. Highly recommend this popular spot.

    Dined here on a Saturday afternoon, service was good but felt like we were being rushed through every step of our meal. It was 5:30 and we were one of only 5-6 parties so not sure why we were rushed through our 30 minute meal. Solid food but a bit pricey for the experience they provided.. probably wouldn’t eat here again.

    Appetizers were underwhelming at best. Our server seemed more focused on turning the table over than allowing us to enjoy our evening. We had been seated for 25 minutes and asked a total of 6 times if we were ready to order. He became visibly frustrated and remained so throughout our meal. We will not be returning.

    The food and service were great, as always. Restaurant unusually loud do to an influx of college sorority celebrations but typically not so noisy.
