We walked in tonight with a non confirmed call ahead (no reservations on a Sat for 20 pplat 530). We were all in by 6, with a perfect seating arrangement. One waitress, Margerita, she did ahhmazing.

Delicious food. Friendly service and very clean restaurant. Our server, Henry, made sure we had everything we needed throughout dinner. Will definitely be back!
