My husband and I had our anniversary dinner yesterday. He had the special fish dish and I had the lobster ravioli. We also had spicy shrimp appetizer, lava cake, gelato and espresso. Everything was delicious and served perfectly.

This was my second time dining here. My reservation was for the new room but we ended up in the regular part of the restaurant. Everything was great- service and ambiance. The food was delicious too! I will be back!

We have eaten here many many times. The service is wonderful and attentive but not overly pesty. Meals have always been excellent. This last visit was no exception. I normally I would rate ambiance and volume differently because it is always lovely. But this time, we were unfortunately seating behind a large loud private party in their new room. Bad timing. This does not deter us from eating at this restaurant!! We will be back.
