  Food was excellent, attentive service and friendly staff. It all made a very pleasant Thanksgiving dining experience. I had the citrus salmon and it was delicious. The sauce was light and had great flavor and was accompanied by spinach and mashed sweet potatoes. The pumpkin butternut squash soup thst preceded the entree was also very tasty. This is a great place to go for a special meal.

  We recently visited for the Friday lunch buffet, which was really something special. We started with the mussels in white wine sauce; the mussels were fresh and tender, and the sauce, white wine, butter, tarragon and other herbs, and of course the liquor from the mussels themselves, was so sublime we asked for extra bread to mop it up. The leg of lamb was outstanding; juicy and tender and cooked a perfect medium rare. Also outstanding was the blackened swordfish in dijon cream sauce; in my experience it is very difficult to keep swordfish from drying out but this was moist and delicious. Vegetable risotto with summer squash, chicken cacciatore, roasted potatoes, and orzo completed the hot offerings; all were tasty and well-prepared but nothing out of the ordinary. Dessert was house-made and consisted of delightful cannolis and a sort of a cheesecake tart. Service was impeccable throughout; we'll definitely be back.

  I was served in a party of 19 tonight (9/30), and the waitress was absolutely horrendous. Her attitude was nasty, and seemed as if she had zero interest in being there. She was very flustered and tried rushing around everyone. When someone asked for something, she quickly exclaimed that she had to do something else first before she could do what they asked. It seemed as if we were personally offending her when requesting something. There was a small child in the room who was rather rambunctious, but instead of trying to be courteous around him, she shushed him and told him to stop. It is not her place to shush someone’s child. The worst of it all, when giving out bread, she stuck both of her hands in the basket and picked up each piece of bread to explain what it was. Not only was that rude, it’s disgusting and the whole table was appalled. Quite possibly the worst waitress we’ve ever had.

  If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would!!! INCREDIBLE and extremely friendly restaurant! I'm not sure what I enjoyed more, the amazing food or the staff! One manager in particular, Massimo, has stood out both times I've gone here. He is one of the most accommodating, engaged and friendly people you will ever meet and makes a point to make each and every table feel special. This place really has it all whether you are looking for some delicious pizza and a nice drink with a couple friends or a really nice family dinner/ special date night spot, (the calamari and veal dishes are ridiculously good) I promise you will not be disappointed!

  I order from here a lot for my workplace, and they've always been fantastic! The food is delicious (and the portions are HUGE, especially on chicken/pasta dishes), and the wait staff is always quick and friendly. Kristen, the bartender, is the best - speedy, sharp, and super friendly. Love love love this place.

  The food is inconsistent, sometimes much better than others. The portions are appropriate, but very expensive. The service and wine list are also both just OK.
