The restaurant was warm and inviting. Our server was Mickey. He was knowledgeable and attentive. Our food was promptly delivered to us. It was delicious! We split the Artichoke salad then chose the seafood special of 8 fish over spaghetti and veal parmigiana with spaghetti on the side. The dinner did no disappoint. It is difficult to get a reservation because it is such a great restaurant but I will plan ahead.
