This was our first time at this restaurant and we'll definitely be back. The food was outstanding II had their short ribs with fettuccine and my wife had pasta bolognese and both were delicious. The appetizers were great and even the bread was super. Service was attentive. Prices were very reasonable... There was nothing not to like
Our server set a new standard for helpfulness. My wife ordered the shellfish pasta dish. Delicious and more than she can eat in one sitting. He put the leftovers in a container. Then he told her to heat a cup of water in a saucepan to a boil. Shut off the heat and mix the leftovers in with the hot water. Worked perfectly! He said to not use a microwave to reheat as it would make the shellfish tough. Excellent!
They had a special NYE. menu with fewer offerings, different from the standard fare. My partner polished off his plate. I was a bit disappointed because I love their eggplant Parmesan,, and I was looking forward to it. An eggplant was on the NYE menu, and it was very good, but it was not what I was hoping to eat. Maybe next big event, I will ask them hem to set aside a plate from the day before for me,just in case.
