Go hungry or be prepared to take your uneaten food home for the next day

Huge portions. The atmosphere is Italian neighborhood / 1950's supper club and very comfortable. The drinks/wine selections are extensive & not overly expensive. The food items offered are carefully prepared and consistently good. The staff is knowledgeable and can answer any questions you may have. We live just a few blocks away (for the past 20 years) and enjoy lunching or dining here at any time.

Fantastic Ambiance and Food

I went here with family for my birthday dinner and we had a wonderful experience. The food was, for the most part, incredible, and the atmosphere was great. However, we arrived at 5pm and the restaurant was still pretty empty, but our food took a very, very long time.

A Rose(bud) with a few thorns

I have to say my girlfriend & I really enjoyed the ambiance of this place the dim lights set a nice romantic atmosphere. However we experienced a few issues with the cuisine.
The boneless American Whitefish wasn't quite boneless and the Molten Chocalate Cake's liquid center was more like dried magma.
The staff was really cool about it though. And the side dishes of califlower, cheese potatos & mac & cheese were huge and delicious.
We'd be willing to give these guys another shot if the price tag wasn't so high.
