We were here for a corporate dinner. The drinks were excellent. Best straight Martini I have had in a while. The fillet mignon was on point and fork tender. The deserts were perfect and not overly sweet.

This place serves a good selection of Italian dishes! The ambiance is great and they have patio seating in the front and in the rear of the restaurant. The food tastes great and I have had really nice servers, the last 4-5 times I have gone here! I highly recommend getting the tiramisu at the end. Overall, a great italian restaurant to go with your family and friends.

Sat at their small (six seats) bar and enjoyed great service from Corey. Nice glass of Chanti & a terrific burata salad. Dishes going by looked amazing and I noted that this is a place with many regulars. I’m definitely going back for some pasta & a dirty martini. Thanks, Corey!

The place was full and we had no reservation. The hostess told us that there will be a wait but she sat us right away. Despite being understaffed, we enjoyed our dinner experience. The porterhouse steak, rack of lamb and veal were cooked to perfection. The spaghetti cacio pepe, panna cotta and ricotta cheesecake were ok.

Love this restaurant! I had the special, veal picata. Very good. A member of our party had the filet mignon ravioli and he said it was the best he’d ever had. He gave me a bite and I concurred! Amazing. It was also on the specials list that night but they should make it a regular dish because it really is amazing. Great job!

We celebrated our 60th anniversary with a family gathering in the Lake Room – the same place we celebrated our 50th ten years ago. Food was wonderful and the service was terrific. Oscar took good care of us.
