    We started off with an espresso martini and a pineapple mule, both were so delicious. Then we shared the calamari which was so flavorful and different from any other place we’ve had it. I had the scallops and broccolini and my date had the crab linguine. Our dishes were so delicious we did not say a word to each other and enjoyed every bite. The portions were a perfect size we both had leftovers. Our server was tentative and appropriate and the atmosphere was sophisticated and classy.

    The ambiance was wonderful and service was good (though sometimes felt pushy). I expected the food to be much better. The beets in the beet salad seemed like they came from a can, and the ricotta in the appetizer did not taste fresh or homemade. Likewise, the homemade pasta missed the mark. For the price and given the ambiance, I expected more gourmet food.

    I had the Linguini Granchio (which I get every time I eat here). When I had it tonight it was cold and the sauce was runny. Crab meat pieces were a lot smaller. Very disappointed.

    Had a terrific happy hour with a friend and progressed to upper level for dinner. Delicious food and beverages … and don’t skip the desserts! It was a celebratory dinner and our server Emma made us feel welcomed and special. Perfect evening! Thank you
