    My husband and I have come here often for the past few years and normally everything is wonderful. Tonight however, it wasnt. While my husband's steak was perfect my normal dish, eggplant parmesan, was inedible, rubbery, yet mushy, dark in color like a mushroom, paper thin and the flavor was not like what im accustom to. I sent it back not once, but twice. It occurred to me that they must have started freezing their eggplant. It is the only thing that would cause this. This is a huge disappointment and not what I would expect for a $150 dinner for two. I wont be as likely to return in the future.

    service is truly 5 stars in every aspect. The waiter was excellent and the young lady refilling our drinks was excellent. She was very prompt and polite and made our experience the absolute best. It was a little pricy with tip 160 but well worth the cost.

    This dining experience was an absolute wreck. Our server kept letting us know of her inexperience and how she also messed up the table next to our table. The biggest issue was I ordered the house risotto, no onion due to an allergy and she told me that could be fulfilled. 30 minutes later, she sets a risotto filled with onion in front of me that she tries to explain had minimal onion. I could see onion all over the plate and I let her know I wouldn’t be eating it but she told me it didn’t appear to be that much onion. So I couldn’t eat my dinner and for a table of 4, I paid $350.00. If someone requests an item without an ingredient due to an allergy, maybe let them know if that can be fulfilled or not. If not, I would’ve ordered a different item. What a waste of money. A pitiful experience to say the least.
