This was my second time here and definitely not my last. I honestly cannot say enough good things from the second you walk in until the moment you leave. You are treated like their number one guest. They do everything right when it comes to the timing of how they serve the bread, the appetizer and the food. Their drinks are absolutely fantastic. And they have the best menu around. My friend got the salt baked branzino. Why I am not one that even likes seafood i had to try it and it was extremely tasty. I ordered the chicken dish and an extra side of the rigatoni with their vodka sauce and that was completely delicious. For dessert I got the Nutella cake and obviously ate every last bite. I cannot wait to go back again.
