My husband and I stumbled on this beautiful gem! From the time we walked through the doors, you could feel the weight of the world fall off! The restaurant is absolutely beautiful! The esthetics make you feel so calm and relaxed! They had live entertainment which just added to the relaxing atmosphere since it was soft and smooth! Eli was our waiter was nothing short but extraordinary and delightful! His father Alberto owner & chef introduced himself and also made an amazing sauce to go on top of my steak! I can’t say enough good things about this place! I recommend everyone to come here!

Two word review: Profoundly Disappointing.
This establishment was recommended by someone who's advice I will not longer be taking on any topic.
Why I will not be returning to dine there:
1. The wait staff failed to deliver the appetizer we ordered.
2. The wait staff never returned to our table to refill our water glasses and the two iced tea glasses in the two hours we were sitting there.
3. The kitchen staff put so much dressing on one of our Caesar salads that the lettuce was practically floating.
4. The wait staff brought a replacement salad after the main course was complete.
5. The owner or manager pushed a desert called a 'Roman Cheesecake' so we ordered one. It was awful. We mentioned this to one of the waitresses and she said something to the effect of 'we get a lot of complaints about how disappointing it is'.
6. The management added the tip automatically to the bill. We had a table with five people. I have never been to a place that adds the tip on such a small party.
7. A 'Leverage Fee' was added to the bill.
8. The 'Lobster Bisque' was basically 'Lobster-less Bisque'.

I love the ambience here. The staff were super friendly and attentive. We had a small group who celebrated my bestie's birthday. The food was great, reasonably priced, and the live music was a very nice touch. Special shout out to Eli who was MAGNIFICENT, and made this birthday so special for my friend and our group. I was very impressed with Eli who appears to be a very young man, who is light years ahead of his time in class, professionalism, knowledge, and service. Well done!

Nice facility. Customer service is great. Wish I could say the same for the food. Bolognese was salty and the pasta was overcooked. Calamari was bland and rubbery. Portions of some of the dishes was sparse.

The Red Snapper with Mussels and Clams was one of the three best restaurant meals I've ever eaten. It rivals the Duck Confit of historic New Orleans and the Cioppino of Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. The accompanying vegetables were pure perfection. I started my meal with the Salmon Carpaccio as an appetizer. In a word, Superb!

Food was cooked to perfection and staff are great! Perfect Thursday Night Jazz 🎵🎶 Guest with music and vocal talent are welcome to join in ❤️
Nice ambiance but the food was average at best. Had the steak and it was not great at all. I was apart of a party of 9 and no one was happy with their dinner. For the price it was not worth it and I wouldn't recommend it or go back.

Very nice venue, will definitely be back!
the atmosphere is cozy, the service is excellent, live music also creates coziness and romance, but the chef needs to be changed, the food is simply heated in the microwave 200% I think that because of this on Saturday evening all the tables are empty
