    I went with some business colleagues to dinner here and we *loved* it. The food was fresh, the pasta delicious, they had oysters! and a lovely beet salad. The tiramisu is worth waiting for. So many good choices on the menu, it was legitimately hard to choose and definitely worth going back. I asked for something specific and the Chef gladly obliged. Wow. the decor is fun and I really liked the different types of tables. Curious to know what this was originally, as we definitely felt like it might've been a retail store (large windows) in a past-life. Thanks for truly lovely evening.

    This restaurant is a perfect choice after opera. I chose the fixed price menu, a 3 course service.. The food is good. The calamari were excellent and so was the chicken parmigiana . The staff is good too. I definitely recommend this place
