Verdict: Delicious southern Italian restaurant with generous portions, very professional wait staff in a beautiful atmosphere. Absolutely deserving of 5 star rating. Well worth your time and money. Details below.
The food here is delicious. All of us ordered some sort of chicken dish; Picatta, Francais, and Sorrentino. I had the latter. It was in a delicious sauce, tender chicken, delicious eggplant, and prosciutto. The portions are large so we all had meals for two nights.
They start you out with, I'm assuming, homemade bread. It's rolled with herbs and spices. I could make a meal out of just that with olive oil! It is served with fresh butter.
Next is the salad. This was the 'low part' of the meal. The lettuce was all the same with very light green and crunchy leaves. I prefer more variety among lettuces and vegetables. Their house balsamic dressing was fine, but nothing special.
As I said above all the entrees were excellent and all were served with pasta and salad. We also ordered two sides of broccoli rabe and spinach. I'm a huge fan of broccoli rabe and this was perhaps the best I've had anywhere.
For dessert we had chocolate lava cake and lemon sorbet. I had the lemon sorbet. I prefer a much more lemony flavor than this sorbet had. The report on the chocolate lava cake was that it was fine but nothing special.
The atmosphere is high end, but cozy. Very nice brick walls lined with bottles of wine. White tablecloths. Quiet and comfortable.
This wouldn't be complete without a shout out to the wait staff. All very professional, well dressed and polite.
