It is much much larger inside than it appears, although the bar is very small. We went on a Friday night without reservations. They said we could wait at the bar until a table was ready. After we were seated at the bar, one of...the hosts asked if he could take our coats, when we declined he said they don't allow coats on the backs of the bar chairs since it's crowded, so he checked out coats for us. The bartenders were slammed, but were able to take our order of a calamari appetizer. They also made us mocktails, but didn't have a menu for them and both were different. Afyer.maybe 45 minutes our table was ready. Since it was busy it took a while to close out our bar tab as the host stood there waiting for us. We were lead to the back, to the right, through another waiting area with restrooms, to a large dining room with vaulted ceilings. The restaurant interior is very pretty, but because it was packed, it was terribly loud. When I say the writer was yelling the specials at the table next to us, I mean yelling, and somehow it wasn't the loudest noise in the room. Our waiter was very rushed and I was worried he wouldn't take my food allergy (alphagal) seriously. But the kitchen was able to make their pasta Suzanne with a plain tomato sauce to make it safe for me. They also provided me with olive oil and pepper for my bread. It did take a reminder or two for creamer and pepper, but it was peak dining time. The food was delicious. The portion was generous, although it was a bit light on the seafood, compared to other similar Italoan restaurants. Overall it was an upscale, traditional, Italian restaurant, which made for a nice evening. Bring cash for the coat check, and ask for a quiet table.if you want to have conversation without yelling.More
