    Service was impeccable We chose a small room with no noise….it was great Wonderful menu with additional choices that made it difficult to choose. Not surprisingly our meal was delicious! We each had Caesar salad prepared at the table And my husband had mussels in a light tomato sauce that he enjoyed. He also had veal Costello That was excellent. I had cace e Pepe prepared at the table also that was creamy, tasty and memorable. Will definitely return and also try their French restaurant, The Arch
