Valentine’s Day with the family was celebrated with a great Italian restaurant.

We started of our night with Tuscan Red Wine from Montalcino region suggested by our server Tomas.

Some dishes are better than others. Bolognese excellent. Seafood pasta- bland. Nice to have warm bread. Service is attentive. A pretty good mid-tiered Italian with a built-in Harvard clientele, so no real incentive to be great. But they are good and consistent.
The food was great; however, one surprising aspect was the way the service was handled. The server repeatedly asked if we were done eating in order to clear our plates.

I found this a bit rude, as it felt like we were being rushed to finish and leave. I understand if there were people waiting to be seated, but it was a Tuesday...
