Ava was our server. She was amazing. Our food came out perfect. I had chicken sienna, Jim had veal parmigiana. We shared traditional fried calamari and a bowl of delicious New England clam chowder. Our three courses came out at perfect intervals allowing us to have time to enjoy each of them and not feel rushed. Thanks to all the staff!
