When I called, the guy who answered said, "depending on what you order, we might close soon." Fortunately, they went ahead and prepared my food. However, since it was a pick-up order, they forgot to give me any utensils or napkins. I was staying in a nearby hotel, but luckily I had some extra chopsticks from my sushi the night before. I wasn't too bothered, though, because the meatballs and sauce were absolutely delicious!

While the drinks are a bit on the pricey side, the service is outstanding. The waitstaff are well-trained and genuinely enthusiastic. I also love the cozy outdoor seating area.

The dish was incredibly fresh and packed with flavor! The veal was so tender that it practically melted in my mouth. I took it to go, so the photos were taken in the containers. The brown sauce was rich in flavor, perfect for dipping the Italian bread that came with the meal. The sauce was just the right amount, ensuring the dish wasn’t overwhelming. There were three small pieces of veal, and I found myself wishing there was a fourth because it was that good! When I picked up my food, the restaurant was bustling, which speaks volumes about their quality. Amazing food! I can’t wait to return and try more of their offerings!

He was cordial and kind as he serviced our table with the most professional care. Hospitality works best when you hire top quality servers like Joseph. Thank you Joseph for the right recipe for the perfect end to our day.
