Superb!-atmosphere, food of course!, service, etc.. have dined at best in the US, best of north america. can't imagine someone having bad experience here unless they were accustomed to olive garden...
Awful Food in a beautiful atmosphere!! We went there for our 27th wedding anniversary and was very disappointed. We had chef tasting menu, which was supposedly the best choices of chef's cooking, but the food was greasy and tasteless. The martinis were flat. The appetizers were greasy and bad tasting. the main dishes were done so badly that the lamb dish looked as though he chewed it and spit it out. The desert was a terrible custard. It was also very expensive. All very very bad. Will never go back there.
WOW!!! This is one of the most incredible restaurants I have ever eaten in. The food was fantastic, so very different than pasta with red sauce. I do believe it is healthier than most too. We were told by the staff to share, and we did, tasting different pastas especially the orecchiette and gnocchi. The fish and fillet so tasty. It is nice seeing a wine list that has so many Italian wines. This place makes you really file like you are in Italy. The pricing is very fair too. Cannot go to that steakhouse down the street and get food like this for a price like this. Cannot wait to go back, next week maybe. Before I forget the service was also great. Very helpful.
