The staff is good and friendly, with the team working together to ensure exceptional customer service. The food is outstanding, highlighted by fantastic dishes like the tender Veal Franchise, amazing garlic bread appetizer, and the chicken piccata was amazing.

The restaurant is small and fills up quickly, so reservations are a must, especially on weekends.
