| - My party of six was promptly seated for a 7pm reservation on a Saturday night. The waiter asked for our order before asking about cocktails or bringing water to the table. We ordered sparkling water for some and tap water for the others. Bottled flat water, for which I was charged, was served alongside the bottled sparkling water. I decided to let it go. Our order was taken a bit quickly and I felt we were being rushed. I ordered wine for dinner and it was served quickly without any request for cocktail orders. The appetizers were delivered very fast, which confirmed my sense of being rushed. Then things started getting more positive. The food was delicious, calamari and zucchini cooked just right, fresh salads, excellent beef carpaccio, and fresh mozzarella tomato salad. We actually had a decent interval between the appetizer and main course. The pink sauce and pesto sauce raviolis were as good as it gets. My wife loved her eggplant parmigiana. The dinner menu is quite nice. Then, three desserts were quickly served for the people that bought the dinner. But, again, we were being rushed as one of my guests wanted the fruit option and none of them were asked to choose before the dessert was served. Then we had to ask for coffees and a dessert menu for the rest of us. We were given one menu to share for three people. The restaurant is attractive and the table side live music was enjoyable. Bottom line, nice environment, service was strange and less than one star, and the food quality was four star or five for some items.
