    Lunch special is CHEAP. Mainly the reason we went here. Pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed their eggplant parm very much ! I'd come back for it.

    They have a secret dish that is not on the menu - seafood risotto ($35) so yummy but a little too salty maybe..

    All the food we had was very bland. Bread was extremely hard. Took an hour and 25 minutes to get our food and it wasn't even busy. Casual dress code. I was told to wear a suit. Won't go back!

    They were a bit unfriendly and they barely explained the dishes to ppl that might have food allergies.

    Expensive, good food & service but very loud. They have a good soups and pastas – all the things we tried this time. Very big portions! And remember about 18% of service charge ,)

    The food here is worth the wait! The specials are a bit on the pricier side. Try the gnocchi pesto with mussels.
