“I dont know why there are bad reviews here. Based off of my night out last night with my husband it was great. The food was cooked perfectly we had the ribeye dinner. The starters we had were also delicious we had the bread and butter and sea scallops. They were all amazing. The service was good. The atmosphere itself was nice but there was a loud bunch there for a while when we first arrived however, once they left it was perfect.”

“This place was wonderful. Everything about our meal and experience was perfect! Anna, our server was friendly, kind, and efficient! We recently traveled to Italy and Greece and this restaurant provided the perfect blend of the tastes of Europe that we experienced and LOVED!”

“We had a group of 8, it was our first time at this restaurant. I ordered the shrimp linguine and the cheesy bread, it was delicious, I couldn't finish it all, so my husband did. He ordered a double burger and he said it was juicy and flavorful, the fries were perfect, nice and crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The service was excellent. Love the restaurants vibe, it's old-style gangsta with a modern twist. We definitely recommend.”

“I got the short rib plate. The place was nearly empty on a Sunday night, but the service was impeccable.
I did ask for fries instead of mashed potatoes, but apparently that request got lost on the way to the kitchen. The short ribs were especially delicious on their bed of mashed potatoes. The vegetables were charged to perfection but just a little salty for my taste.
I also had a starter of calamari, which was very good but slightly over fried.”

“Arrived at 4 pm on a Saturday and was seated immediately in the booth I had reserved. The place was mostly empty. Not exactly the romantic atmosphere I was hoping for, but it worked. I started with an aperol spritz. It was very good. There was some confusion on my second drink, but they made it right. We ordered Greek salads, Beef Wellington, and a Porterhouse steak. The salads were large and flavorful, and the meats were tender and of good portion. I only wish the meats came with garlic/gorgonzola butter or a mushroom gravy, as they were basically flavorless. All in all, for the price being charged, I'm not likely to return.”
