The food and the new building is amazing. You can’t get better food without driving to the Bay Area. It’s truly a hidden gem in our city. The wait at times is long, but the food is phenomenal and worth the wait..

Nothing really new/interesting about the menu. Felt the food was overpriced for what it was. My date enjoyed his food though, personal preference not for me.

This place is a gem! The food is absolutely amazing, and they consistently nail it with both their regular menu items and the specials. The portions are generous, making it a great bang for your buck without compromising on quality. It's not just a restaurant; it's like stepping into a home away from home. The warm and welcoming atmosphere makes you feel like part of their family the moment you walk in. Plus, the drinks are top-notch! Overall, a delightful experience every time.

I really love this place. It's small but the food is delicious. The atmosphere is really nice. The service is a little off. They are really nice, though. The bartender is pretty great.I especially love the Chicken Marsala and the Blueberry lemon cake ?? My hubby loves the Italian meat pasta!
Reservations only. But they allowed my family of 6 to dine with a hour window

The staff is excellent. Elijah, our server was great! We never waited for anything. He explained everything to us “First time” diners at their establishment. Definitely a nice Restiorante here in Modesto. A tad on the high end for pricing but what isn’t these. We chose most every option for our anniversary dinner. Worth every dollar spent, with no doubt.

Easily one of the best restaurants in Modesto, food is hands down perfect. The setting is intimate and light. Anytime a higher end date night is desired, this is the prime location. Cannot say enough good

Took food to go but also have ate in... Had the fresh coconut encrusted halibut with mixed veggies and mashed potatoes seasoned with butter and garlic. The portions were generous and the lemon butter sauce for the halibut was divine...halibut cooked perfectly. When I have dined in servers are attentive and very thorough in explaining dishes. The pricing is very fair for the great quality and overall quantity and I would go back there again! The other half of our party got the beef short rib special and were very happy with the large ribs! Previously when I ate in I got dessert and it was excellent as well...Vegetarian options: Check menu or call!
