“great for italian food.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

This is a very nice restaurant with a great wine list and a huge menu.I had lunch after visiting the mission. The server was very attentive and they had the best bread with pesto butter. I had a salad and an entree with 3 different pasta's. The spinach ravioli and the lasagna were delicious.

“worst service ever”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed January 5, 2013

We stopped for a late lunch on 12/27/12 after visiting the Mission. Arrived about 2:30 pm to a 1/2 full dining room. We were seated right away. We waitied about 10 min for the waiter to come to our table.... thankfully we ordered everything then... but things went downhill after that. We started to notice a few people just get up and leave and then started to really pay attention. There appeared to be only 2 servers working (and 1 of them was also playing bartender) and the hostess (who never moved from her stand, despite many tables needing to be cleared). I had to get up and get silver ware from another table because we weren't brought enough and drinks were left dry. The kicker was that he brought ALL our food out at once... Appetizers(2), salads and main course... he did say sorry it all came out together (I'm sorry to...your tip reflected the poor service).... needless to say I would not recommend this place, especially with the many other good choices in the immediate vinicity.
