We dined here on Sunday evening, the last evening of the FQF. We called around noon for 8:30 reservations and were quickly accommodated. When we arrived we were greeted by the chef/owner, Duke, a very pleasant and affable man. He was gregarious and charming. The waitstaff was knowledgeable of the menu and specials and eager to answer questions and make... more

I absolutely love right when you walk in this place. A great place to take a date for a romantic getaway and I highly recommend just relaxing before dinner on the love sofas.

This place is AWESOME! The singers here are better than what you usually find in a restaurant. The food is EXCEPTIONAL. I agree with a precvious reviewer, don't worry about the menu. Just order one of the tasting menus and let the Chef do the picking. You will not be disappointed. more

I'm Italian and can be very critical of restaurant Italian food. I had the Spaghetti a la Bolognese and was pleasantly surprised. Service was friendly and prompt. And the opera singers were great! They weren't irritatingly "operaish"...meaning that you could still enjoy your meal. more
