read moreThe restaurant has received mixed reviews, with some diners raving about the attentive service and delicious food, while others were disappointed by the loud noise level and lackluster dishes. Despite the diversity of opinions, many customers praised the friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. The menu seems to have standout dishes, such as the Parmigiano veal and the beef tartare, which left diners wanting to return for more. Overall, it appears that the restaurant has a loyal customer base, with some patrons having been coming back for close to 20 years. Despite some negative feedback, it seems that many diners had a positive experience, especially on special occasions such as anniversaries or holidays. It seems that the restaurant continues to maintain its reputation in the neighborhood as a great dining spot with a cozy atmosphere and tasty food.
