The table was decorated for my husbands birthday and they wrote happy birthday on his dessert plate. Everything we ordered was delicious. Each person we encountered was happy, attentive, and kind. Our 16 month old dropped a few things and if a member of the staff (manager, server, busser(sp) host/ess) were witch to assist and tell us not to get up. I couldn't recommend them, especially for a festive dinner, enough.

Did Monday night pre fix deal. Honestly if it wasn't for that deal I probably would have rate lower. Appetizer was decent. Entre was bland and basic, no flavor. Tiramisu was also decent. Waitress was MIA most of meal.

I love this place. We have been here several times, as it is a perfect place when we are in the area. We have 2 small dogs that we travel with and they have outdoor seating. I have a gluten allergy and they do a great job with gluten free meals. The food is always perfect. The parking lot is usually pretty full, so it takes a minute to get a space, but it isn't a $25 an hour parking garage, so I don't mind it at all. The staff is always fantastic and I've never had a bad meal. The gf ravioli is the best I've had and I always enjoy the salad. The inside of the restaurant looks very nice. I would definitely recommended this restaurant!

Met a good friend for lunch, and we were both happy with our choices, the service, and overall ambience. Next time, I look forward to trying the 3 course prix fixe lunch option!

Very enjoyable evening. Love that we were seated upon arrival (10 minutes early) even though the rest of our party had not yet arrived. Our booth was set up perfect for conversation amongst 6 people. We drank old fashions which were not watered down and had the perfect amount of bitters. The caesar salad was fresh with fresh shaved parmesan, but dressing was a little too lemony for my taste. The bread basket arrived warm and olive oil was delicious. We ordered the eggplant parmesan appetizer which was more than enough for a main meal, the chicken parmesan which was so large we took half home, and the sea bass special, which was a disappointingly small portion of fish over a large amount of rice. I'd recommend the traditional italian dishes with red sauces and pasta, as these did not disappoint. The tomato sauce tasted fresh, light, and not at all acidic.

The food was average for the most part. We ordered the bean soup/stew which was terrible. We did not neat it and they did not credit us for it. We all tasted the soup and it was bad all around.

Delicious food - we had eaten at Providence location and loved it - wished we got a better table - one of those fancy booths along the wall- since I did make a reservation well in advance. We were in middle at front by thé bar. They should take better care of reservation customers as far as placement goes

Our food and service were quite good. We were there for an early dinner and there were other diners there as well. There was not a lively atmosphere yet, probably because of the early hour. But something that was a little annoying was someone was vacuuming a couple of different times while we were there and eating our dinner. It seems as if vacuuming should be done prior to opening.

UPDATE: I showed the image I took to the protein and seafood distribution operations manager for a couple of fine dining establishments as well as many of my friends who frequent fine dining establishments as we do and the response is that the dish was clearly NOT filet mignon.

My review is honest of our experience with this restaurant.

I tried to contact the manager to address it personally and privately and was told the General Manager would call me back and of course, never did.

UGHHH!! Beware!!! They literally just served us short rib and tried to pass it off as filet mignon.

I wish I was kidding.

I have literally never thought a restaurant would be so pathetic as to do this, but guess times are hard……. lol

When we brought it up they tried to gaslight us into thinking it was a filet mignon stating they would never try to pass short rib off as filet mignon … but unfortunately for them, we have eyes.

So unprofessional and sad.

This place is good, not great, but terrible. The atmosphere is really nice. You feel fancy. They did a great job there. Wait staff is good. Food is hot or miss
. Avoid the pizza. They have 2 and they taste like reheated frozen pizza. Pasta dishes are decent. Won't blow your tots off but good enough to want to come back. The mocktails are fantastic. That's a nice surprise. Solid B avoid the Pizza
