good place to hang out. the kitchen in this place is really good. i haven't had a bad meal and i go about once a month. the decor is outdated and the dessert cooler in the dining room is a little tacky, but then so are the paper place mats. another thing that bothers me is the plastic soufflé cups they serve salad dressing in, placed right on your salad. in addition, the staff is more snobby than friendly.
this is all being nit-picky, of course. they've got a good bar selection and great italian style menu. the food is tasty, it's not inexpensive, but the quality isworthwhat you pay for. with a little tweaking, this could be a very classy restaurant. as is, it's a nice place to hang out with friends, relax and enjoy good food and drinks.
