What people say

"the menu was in italian but our waiter was good about translating. We ultimately went with his recommendations and walked out satisfied. We started with quail and went on to some pasta dishes which were risotto and lasagna. i have to say the starters were more memorable than the main dishes themselves. the portions were quite small. I understand this place is located in an upscale area and ultimately you are paying for it."
