    Great Food and Service: We had an amazing time at this place. It has a great old style bar in the front of the restaurant while the back has multiple small rooms that make for a very comfortable dining experience.

    Our service was also top-notch. The waiter was helpful, yet not annoying and helped us pick out a great pinot noir wine --- Adelshein.

    Oh...almost forgot to mention the food --- the food was top notch. Highly recommend any of the Ravioli dish.

    A fantastic experience: Not much to complain about with this restaurant. The food, service, ambiance, etc have all been fantastic. The negative reviews I've seen with this restaurant mostly center around poor service when this place is crazy-busy. Maybe I just go at off times, but I have always had excellent service here.
