We didn't have a reservation, but we were still treated like royalty. We sat at a table in the bar, and it was very nice. It was a little loud, but I almost expect Mediterranean places to be lively anyway so it didn't bother us at all. The food wasexquisite and the drinks were very delectable! I will make a reservation next time (and there will be a next time) for sure!

The outdoor dining area was booked so we sat inside but the AC was so cool it was a bit uncomfortable if you didn't have a jacket. I had the Pear salad and had asked ifI could add crumbled gorgonzola cheese to it and there was barely any cheese. I ordered the Lobster and Shrimp Alla Vodka andthe flavor was good, but there were super tiny shreds of lobster (no chunks or claws) that I had to search for because I thoughtI didn't get the right dish that I ordered, only the shrimp were visible. Service was quick. This place has a great menu and Iwas looking for more upscale options but was a little disappointed in the presentation and barely getting any lobster in myentree. If it's warm weather, sit outside and enjoy the ambiance.

Bar was very clean, nice outside furnishings, open spacious several comfortable options. Service was excellent,someone always there if you needed something. We had margaritas and appetizers. Drinks were well made and good looking. We hadthe burrata with roasted squash, prawns in a spicy buttery sauce with crostini and a Mediterranean seafood chowder. Then addedthe meatballs and flatbread. Good presentation but meatballs were very garlicky. All looked great and overall most everythingwas tasty. Everything came out promptly. They served salty focaccia bread. All in all, very good. It is a little pricey itwould be tough for a couple to leave with a tab lower than $100. Was glad to see someone turn this spot around (it had struggledbefore, when other owners concepts fell flat). Parking was a bonus.

It was served on top of farro which as of now, I am a big fan of. The rack of lamb was also wonderful.They served a nice size portion of three double rib. Cooked perfectly. Also had the swordfish which I recommend. All nicesize portions. Save room for desert. If you like chocolate, finish your meal with the truffle cake. All the staff wereexceedingly friendly and helpful. If you are in OGT, make sure you have dinner here at least once.

The inside kinda reminded me of my grandmother's dining room with her plastic covered couch in the living room. A better atmosphere would certainly be nice. The deck looks nice but there was no try to block out the traffic it was all pretty plain. Oh and we ordered the escargot and they served them out of the shell which did not add anything and they were under seasoned and bland. Be aware if you note. A dietary restriction, doesn't look like they look at them. I am gluten free and they offered bread and brought bread with the subpar escargot.
