    AMAZING!! We’ve dined here before and each time it’s been an excellent experience. The best service again, this time our server was Aiden. He was personable & attentive. Here’s what we ordered: for appetizers we had the octopus and the carpaccio.. the octopus was perfect, and the carpaccio had shaved truffle…the best carpaccio! The entrees: lobster raviolis, this is a dish we usually avoid at restaurants because they’re bland and tasteless, not these. These were large stuffed with the most tender delicious filling, it was so good we actually ordered one to take home. We also had the spaghetti fra diavalo with lobster.. fantastic and easily enough for two. One thing that is really nice is the dessert menu is not the typical ordinary things you see on everyone’s menu, this was unique. We had rhubarb bread pudding, moist & delicious. We had a Carmel ice cream popsicle with Carmel popcorn.. yes, it’s hard to picture it but we were crazy for it. Also, the vibe of this place is great. It’s intimate & even with music playing you can actually hold a conversation.

    Wonderful food. Outstanding oysters imperial. Some of the best scallops and salmon we have ever had. Service was excellent. We were going to a concert and our server made sure everything proceeded on schedule but still took time to be personable and ensure everything was fine. Definitely a favorite whenever we are in Cleveland. For what you get, the prices actually are quite reasonable.

    We were there on a basketball playoff game night. They were extremely busy and the wait staff did a great job with seating us right away (had made a reservation) taking our order for drinks and food checking back to see how everything was and keeping our water glasses filled. It was Power Hour and we had the bar bites ³Wagyu Smash Burger Sliders, ³Petite Filet Mignon Sliders and Hot Chocolate ("Lava") Cake for dessert. All was fresh, filling and flavorful
