    A wonderful dining experience. My only complaint is that my meal wasn’t very hot. But we love it here; everything is always delicious.

    Food was perfect, a little skimpy on the scallops but everything else was superlative. Jimmy the waiter was fun and upbeat, and the prices were quite fair! All in all a great place to visit if you don't mind the more than moderate crowd noise.

    Food was great sirloin was large and cooked great and Arancini were great. Only downside. We were sitting for 20 minutes and no server approached us. I had to get a runners attention to send a server over otherwise dinner and the restaurant was lovely.

    We been here before, and we decided to go for our anniversary, I guess I was expecting a more consistent experience, my mushroom ravioli was bland, the server, was average, and not a place I can say I would go back to again. After dinner we decided to have desert someplace else, hopefully that sums up my experience.
