“It was absolutely outstanding. The room is spacious and the ceiling is high but the acoustics are great. The place was full but it was easy to hold a conversation with one another. In addition, the live opera music from the outside are could be heard inside but it was not imposing or distracting. The menu choices are diverse from the appetizer and salad choices to the entrees. Any one person would be hard presses not to find something to their liking. My wife and I shared the Bruschetta which was very good. I ordered pasta prepared puttanescca style with swordfish. Some of the best pasta I have had. My wife ordered the Risotto with pieces of beef tenderloin. The risotto and pasta were cooked perfectly. By the way, a bread basket is served with a variety of baked breads like foccacia bread which was nice and salty! The service was better than average but not over the top. We decided not to order drinks or wine as we initially intended to do. The waiter seemed a little displeased. Nevertheless, the service was fine once he got over it. He knew we were in a hurry and did a fine job of making it speedy. Bread, Bruschetta, Swordfish Puttanescca Pasta, Tenderloin Risotto, two cokes, tax and 20% tip was $60!”
