  • "Our appetizer (bruscetta) and entrees (beet and goat cheese salad, spinach ravioli, and chicken milanese) were delicious and reasonably priced."
  • "Also I always order a Espresso Martini in everywhere. This place’s one has less sweet side that I like and larger amount."

Cons:

  • "O.v.e.r.p.r.i.c.e.d. Keep walking, they collect $65.00 without letting you pass Go."
