"Overall just a so so experience which was disappointing considering it was my spouse’s birthday dinner with family. For the positives, the appetizers were fantastic and the interior was nice. The issue is the negatives. Perhaps the appetizers were too good because the mains were nothing better than so so. This is supposed to be an upper scale Italian restaurant yet there was no “experience”. Plates were simply thrust in front of you apparently already seasoned the way they thought you should want and pasta served already with Parmesan on top instead of asking if you wanted it which was unfortunate for our son since he doesn’t like Parmesan and we had to rake it off. The vegetables served with a carne (meat) dish were overly salted and neither in the party could eat them, which went unnoticed by the staff and even when told, we received a “oh I’m sorry” not a let me get the manager or anything and in fact, in the multi course meal, never once did management check in on the table. The final straw was the restaurant allowing a small dog to be brought into the restaurant and held by the patron with its paws on the table despite them having an outdoor patio area. This was not a service dog, this was a small dog in a sweater that was brought into the restaurant in a carrier and then pulled out once they got to the table. This is a health issue and against local code."
