Opera Night on October 19th was once again a truly special evening! The food and service were excellent, as they have been throughout our many years of attending. We especially loved the variety of courses, along with the outstanding food and wine selections. The singers were exceptional and wonderfully engaging with the guests. As musicians ourselves, we truly appreciate the quality of the performances and the artistry that makes this event so memorable. Thank you for another wonderful evening of music, fine dining, and outstanding hospitality. We look forward to returning!

    We have been coming to this restaurant for the past 25+ years, probably more than a dozen visits, and we have always walked away raving about the quality of the food and service. Tonight was no exception. Everything we had from Tommy’s Tomato Salad to the fresh fish selection to the veal Parmesan and beyond was prepared perfectly and tasted delicious. A special treat is always having a conversation with the owner and executive chef, Terry Tarantino, who makes the rounds of the tables serving up his own version of Cacio d’Pepe. It would be a disappointment to miss him and his hat. Lucky for us, he was there to oversee the goings on, as usual. The Little Italy neighborhood location, too, is a delight. Take some time and walk around while you are there. Tip: opt for Little Italy valet parking or expect to walk some distance from whatever parking spot you can find nearby.
