The food was good but needlessly overpriced. I had the bone-in filet at $54, while husband had the $35 branzino.

It was served barely warm, dry and nearly required a... more

Pretentious. The staff thinks the sun shines out of their back sides …….over priced and doesn’t taste that great. Quality/taste vs. price ratio is not that great. more

Terrible service and attitude, but the amazing food makes it worth it. Get the sweet corn ravioli. more
