Fantastic food and our waiter was perfect. Always checking but never hovering, and he answered any questions about the menu easily and completely. I had one of the specials, Seafood Risotto, and it was amazing. Tasted my friend’s Lasagna and it was wonderful-not too heavy. Fried cauliflower and Bruschetta were perfection. Finished our meal with a lovely Strawberry Cheesecake. Absolutely a restaurant to put on the Don’t Miss list

Excellent restaurant, delicious cuisine with quality products and excellent wines. Attentive and precise service. Compliments!!
