Easy to make a reservation. Friendly service. Lively atmosphere. Food came out all together. These dishes were a miss. I ordered the veal ravioli. I tasted more pasta than veal. The temperature was cold and overall would not order the dish again. My mother ordered the chicken fettuccine. The chicken was overcooked and the noodles were cold. It did not hit the mark. However, the chicken sandwich is a must try. It was flavorful, chicken was juicy, bread had a great crunch. Olive tapenade was delicious. It was a great consistency to spread on bread.

Went in today around 7pm. The food itself was incredible. Our waiter and hostess were kind and really attentive. However, there was a female employee picking up the empty dishes and taking them back (which wasn’t the issue). She did not say excuse me and would reach over us mid conversation. She didn’t even ask if we had finished with our meals, simply picked up the plates and took them back. We left after the third time she stopped by our table.
