Had a great prime rib dinner! We went early (for sunset dining) and the room was not real busy so the place was unusually quiet, which was a nice bonus, but it was the food, the views, and our waiter who made the experience really, really nice.

    Our daughter started college nearby and raved about this restaurant she stumbled upon with friends. Now we’re visiting and eating here for our second night. The atmosphere is a blend of upscale and cozy classic. I the food is on point!! The orancini as a starter is an absolute show-stopper. Everything from the pizza to the chicken parm is perfection. If you’re passing through- don’t skip this. Make a reservation! They are always packed.
