Chilean Sea Bass and Veal Chop specials were excellent. Loved the grilled calamari appetizer. Pistachio dessert was light and delicious. Dominick is a terrific server. BYOB is a plus. Can't wait to go back!

Everything was excellent. The service, Dominic, was superb. Attentive, honored any requests you could have. The food of course is so very good, cooked perfectly, presented nicely, delicious. And the cost is very good, especially considering the level of service and food one receives. Highly recommend.

Staff was very accommodating & friendly. Knowledgeable about the Specials & all of the food was fantastic. Have eaten there 4 times and never disappointed! Would like to keep it as a secret place but too good not to share. Paul B.
