Potato and Zucchini Chips, calamari, tuna tartare. For mains try the lobster linguine (spicy) and yellow tuna pan seared. Tiramisu for desserts. This place is definitely pricey!

Really great restaurant in terms of decor, service and food. Zucchini chips and grilled pizza are menu standouts. And they have Whispering Angel, which is great if you're into rose

The place was totally packed at 1:00 p.m. and people kept coming in. The pizza is super thin and very good and the eggplant and zucchini pie was truly amazing! Super light and delicious.

Cappuccinos are great! Frito mistto and salmon were great! Was not impressed with amarone selection!

She'll be the only reason, to go there again;the waitress Sharon is so quick,intelligent and helpful,i admired her. The appetizer thing with the bread (old bread) is like a hummus but it is awful

Try not to fill up on the delicious bread and cheese stick plate! Splurge on the Organic Grilled Black Angus Rib Steak.

Great place! I was expecting my chicken ceasar to be run of the mill...the chicken was thick and hearty, a bit dry, but good. Not worth the price but still a far cry from other restaurants.

The food was a little too complicated for my taste, but the atmosphere is nice and the service was great.

Had dinner, mediocre food and very crowded. Ordered an entree for 2 & they lost leftovers in the coat room—$30 worth of food. Owner said I should keep better track of my food and didn't do anything.
