    Horrible! My husband and I went there for our 35th wedding anniversary. Server came to the table and took our order. After that we never saw her again. No one came to check on us after we received our food and no one asked if we wanted any wine. We were going to order a bottle but was never asked. We literally had to stop another server to receive our check and only at that point did someone care to ask if there was a problem. What a shame. Our reservations were for 7:00pm but so was the rest of the entire restaurant. So many people afterwards that we spoke to stated the same experience. Don’t waste your money or time there!!

    The food was good, but this is a very popular and over influenced area. You come here because you have seen it on social media, but in reality the place is cramped and you are sitting about 2 feet away from a stranger. The prices are expensive for the same quality of food elsewhere.

    We booked 7 pm reservation and were promptly seated. Our server treated us to a complementary appetizer. We ordered the octopus and beef carpaccio. They were delicious. For dinner we had the steak Florentine, spinach, and asparagus followed by the apple tart and tiramisu…su…su. Everything was delicious! The atmosphere was enchanting. We enjoyed it all!
