Giving this place 4 stars.
Food. Outstanding. I had the rabbit with square pasta. It was amazing. We had an appetizer of fried artichoke hearts and also a 5 choice of meats/cheeses. Both were great. Tasted the crab pasta and lobster/corn ravioli...yum. Great portion sizes according to price. Salad was fresh arugula with slices of parm and the dressing was a sweet basalmic. Leftovers to bring home on the pasta. Dessert of tiramisu. Not the best tiramisu I've ever had, but it was very good.
Atmosphere. It's a little loud because everything is polished concrete. I think maybe if the added wall hangings that absorbed some of the noise, it would be more pleasant.
Service. Our waitress was excellent and went through the menu offering suggestions and descriptions.
BYOB. Awesome. No corking fee either.
Table seating...this is where I would give it a 1 or a zero. They sat 5 of us in the lobby area...right in the middle of where everyone was standing to wait and worse RIGHT next to the bathrooms. Terrible. The bathroom doors didn't remain closed and we could smell the toilet drop ins. We had made a reservation two weeks before and asked if there was a different table stating we did have a reservation. Front of the house girl was pretty short and said basically this was it and deal with it. You are front of the house...pleasant attitude is expected and they obviously knew it was a screw up because they comped both appetizers. There was also no salt/pepper on table so I'm thinking this was not a regular seating place.
Will I return? Most likely yes. However, if I have to sit in the bathroom again I will not go back. Suggestion...put a couple bar tables there so waiting guests can have a drink/appetizer while standing.
