It was again a very comfortable environment, the music in the background was relaxing and set the perfect ambience.Our wonderful hosts literally remembered the wine and the beer we ordered prior to dinner the last time we were in. I was extremely impressed and felt right at home. This attention to detail you will only find in the finest of restaurants.We again enjoyed our wined with the freshly baked bread and olive oil, this bread is very soft, light and has a wonderful salty top to it. We also ordered the cheese plate, I thoroughly enjoy this cheese plate. The four options of cheese combined with the fresh plum and maple butter pairs perfectly with the Rosso De Montalcino.I decided to order one of the specials being offered, a ravioli filled with braised beef short ribs and red potatoes, if it tasted as good as it sounded I was going to thoroughly enjoy this dinner. Our entrees arrived and I was absolutely taken back by the flavor in the ravioli I ordered. The ravioli appeared to be layered in more of a gravy rather than red sauce and had a nice thick layer of fresh Parmesan sprinkled on top.Cheers!In my opinion the ravioli was sitting in a wonderful gravy, sauce, that was seasoned to compliment the contents of the pasta perfectly. The flavor of the braised short ribs was phenomenal in this pasta, and definitely not overwhelming whatsoever. This entree was put together perfectly from beginning to end, the ingredients were married together and presented exceptionally. There is no guess work here and that is why I am willing to try new entrees without concern of being disappointed.Unfortunately due to time constraints we were bot able to sit and enjoy dessert, I guess I will save that for next time and have two! We will return when we are in the area next as it is our restaurant of choice.Cheers!!

A great value (though prices are up a bit) and good dining experience all around. The food never disappoints, and the service is highly efficient and attentive without being overbearing,, and very friendly. Siroc leaves you in good hands on all fronts.

We had to move inside the mosquitos were so bad. Once inside, we had a good experience. Food was very good!

I've patronized this restaurant since it opened in 2009 and it never disappoints.

The food was fantastic — I ate WAY more than I normally would have — and so was the service and the wine.I was in a party of six and everyone enjoyed their meal immensely. One of the party was vegan, and they bent over backwards to make sure she was accommodated.I am not easily impressed, but this is an impressive place! It was fairly random that we ended up here, and I can’t be happier about chance.
